Strange; and always so much larger than the knock-eyed schoolboy;
Who yet forgets in a moment the bigness of it all:
The seminary of the mind
Bequeaths a guilty ignorance for a life or more,
And then absents itself without looking back.
Published in 1960, in the Perth Modern School magazine called The Sphinx.
