[hometext] => I know my adverbs are all wrong, but I couldn't afford the syllables.
[bodytext] => Here is a story of things that burn slow Charcoal is one if my learning is right Coal, coke and bitumen can smoulder all night In fact carbonised fuels are all that I know. I guess that a candle or, more rightly, its wick Will keep a flame blazing for one day or more But now that I’ve pondered I can’t say I’m sure If it is the vapours of wax burning quick. The thought has just struck me, I realise at last I should write a poem on things that burn fast.
