Dead End
By Alexander Blok
Night, street, streetlight, a pharmacy.
A senseless, drab light all about.
Live twenty five more years and see,
Nothing will change. There's no way out.
Die and you will restart it all
As long ago. Things will repeat:
Night, icy ripple of a canal,
Streetlight, the pharmacy, the street.
