1396

[Gerard Sekoto, Boy and the Candle (1943); courtesy dVerse Poets Pub]

 What if he blew and blew,

But the candle flame, true

To disobediance  sort review;

And claiming freedom grew,

Brighter and brighter due,

To some magical new

Assignment, based on few

Rules to guide, and will to chew

On observances due 

To maturity anew
