methinks that Crane was very young at the time of this writing... and trying to understand justice
as with all artists/poets he was wont to periods of discovery
consider this:
"If I should cast off this tattered coat,
And go free into the mighty sky;
If I should find nothing there
But a vast blue,
Echoless, ignorant ---
What then? "
probably more of a challenge to the ethics of spirituality, than an enigmatic truth.
Life is Good!

Forget weeping. The essence of Stephen Crane (IMHO):
A man said to the universe:
"Sir I exist!"
"However," replied the universe,
"The fact has not created in me
A sense of obligation."
