A Negative Recollection of a Fire
The charred, burnt smell
Of plastic, linoleum, and insulation
The ruined years of work
With the Weapon of inflamation
The black and stink
That fills the morning air
As we look upon this
With bleak despair
"Burn! Burn!" is the pyro's thinking
And we must suffer through hiw way
Frustration, irritation, and depression
But someday the pyro will pay
We shuffle through the damage
To salvage what we can
A record here, a picture there
Part of man's inhumanity to man
Prometheus stole this useful magic
From the Gods of Greece
And taught man its ways of use
If only he could see through the ages
How much fire has suffered from abuse.
