I don't pity, don't call, don't cry.....

Sergei Alexandrovich Yesenin was a Russian lyrical poet born( 3 October 1895) in Konstantinovo in the Ryazan Province( Gubernia) of the Russian Empire. He was one of the most popular and well-known Russian poets of the 20th century but committed suicide at the age of 30.The early death, unsympathetic views by some of the literary elite, adoration by ordinary people, and sensational behavior, all contributed to the enduring and near mythical popular image of the Russian poet.
