                    Child Prodigy

     Disciplined and bounded by the age of four

       focussed upon a goal whose primacy

       he dares not question.

     Forever practicing and polishing

       talent and mastery inform

       an artistry whose sheer perfection

     Dazzles the world with beauty unsurpassed

       and hides in shame a sour human core

       sneering at all

       who fail comparison.
