Chapter 23
Eventually, of course, Stalin died,
2 hBut didn't get stuffed and put on display,
3 Because the new czar,
4 Whose name was iKhrushchev,
5 Said that Stalin had committed some crimes against the Russian people
6 jSomehow.
7 Then Khrushchev went to work fixing everything up again,
8 kWhich he did by building a huge number of gigantic new nuclear
weapons,
9 lAnd inventing a completely new Marxist way of farming tat made the comrades
even more miserable than they had ever dared to hope,

large numbers of comrades to be miserable in huge apartment complexes,
where four or five families could be miserable together in the same room,
11 nAnd if any of them weren't quite miserable enough, they
could still go to Siberia,
12 oAlong with practically everybody else.
13 pKhrushchev also reformed the government bureaucracy so that
the Russkies could rule themselves with gigantic committees that ran everything
even more slowly and clumsily and stupidly than before,
14 qSo that the whole economy produced almost nothing but nuclear
missiles,
15 And tractors,
16 aAnd tremendous concrete things that didn't really quite
do anything.
