The Burning Lamp

Just look at that intense light
Coming off that flame so bright.
Just see that tiny lamp holding
High its flag of fire as if preparing
To go into a battle to win
And only that.Meanwhile moths grin
At the lamp-soldier as they come
Charging at it.But within some
Moments,at its feet,they lie dead;
Burnt;Turn your gaze and in their stead,
Just look at the base of the lamp;
'Ah!Such glory thou hast,but why so damp
And dark thy own state?'.But me,
I am so!As for you,what shall thee be?
