Stephen Crane (Стивен Крейн)


* * *


A spirit sped
Through spaces of night;
And as he sped, he called,
”God! God!”
He went through valleys
Of black death-slime,
Ever calling,
”God! God!”
Their echoes
From crevice and cavern
Mocked him:
”God! God! God!”
Fleetly into the plains of space
He went, ever calling,
”God! God!”
Eventually, then, he screamed,
Mad in denial,
”Ah, there is no God!”
A swift hand,
A sword from the sky,
Smote him,
And he was dead.



Stephen Crane's other poems:
  1. Supposing that I should have the courage
  2. Mystic shadow, bending near me
  3. When the prophet, a complacent fat man
  4. The ocean said to me once
  5. In the night
