STALIN AT 23 ❋ Seila Rizvic

you would hope that you could look at someone’s face
and see if they were evil
but mostly
stalin at 23 just looks like an asshole

if one of my friends was dating stalin at 23
i’m sure he’d be unbearable at parties

he’d tell you all about
how he got accepted to tiflis spiritual seminary
‘which is like the top spiritual seminary in tiflis’

then he’d take a swig of pabst’
the beer of the proletariat’
and ramble on about revolutionary marxism
like a jerk

he would definitely interrupt you when you talked
and get frat boy drunk
and be rude to his girlfriend

the night that stalin’s second wife died
they had a fight
at a dinner party
she was later found in her room
dying by suicide
or maybe murder
