Poem by Stephen Crane

* * *

There was a man who lived a life of fire.
Even upon the fabric of time,
Where purple becomes orange
And orange purple,
This life glowed,
A dire red stain, indelible;
Yet when he was dead,
He saw that he had not lived.

1. Many red devils ran from my heart
2. A little ink more or less!
3. And you love me
4. Blustering God
5. Tell brave deeds of war
