a window box of wood

 a window box of wood 


in the industrial terraces

where ne’er a flower will ever grow

a child asks   and it is made 

a window box of wood

green

water is talked and risen

under the hillsides of a dull glow 

that grows 

in the furnace of a young boy’s mind

a heart is smelting

another kind of thing

do you know what he said 


  he said 


  i will not

  i will not  go
