On April 14, 1930, at 10:15 a.m. Vladimir Mayakovsky stuck a shot in Lubianski's alley with the revolver that had served him twelve years before for his role in the movie "I was not born for the money".
Before committing suicide he wrote:
To all!
Nobody is blamed for my death and, please,
no gossip. Lili love me.
Comrade government, my family is: Lili Brik, my mother, my sisters and Verónica Vitaldovna Polonskaya.
Comrade government, my family is: Lili Brik, my mother, my sisters and Verónica Vitaldovna Polonskaya.
If you assure them a decent existence, thank you.
Please give the incomplete poems to the Brik, they will understand them.
As someone said
the story has ended.
The ship of the love
The ship of the love
has smashed
against the daily life
And we are tied
you and I
So what for
to reproach ourselves
for pains and hurts and received blows?
*before someone says that: There is no connection between Mayakovsky and Sabato.
** i think that few things can contain more poetry than this final letter.
