Text
Many Red Devils Ran From My Heart
Stephen Crane
Many red devils ran from my heart
And out upon the page,
They were so tiny
The pen could mash them.
And many struggled in the ink.
It was strange
To write in this red muck
Of things from my heart.
"Many red devils ran from my heart" is the second song from Lowell Liebermann's Final Songs,, op. 21 song cycle. The original text was written by Stephen Crane, an American poet and author.
