Firemen burning
Books without a care
Hmm…
Four fifty one
Degrees burn its proof! – 
Naught!
The books, priceless
With knowledge and words
Typed,
But left unread, 
In a creative…
Way
Guy Montag is
A unique fireman…
He
Worked for ten years – 
WATCHED
The pages scorch
Aflame with pleasure – 
He’s 
Bad to the bone…
But, he will be a 
Grand
Hero soon…Hence,
He meets a weird girl
Who 
Teaches him lessons
She’s age seven-
Teen
What is her name?
Oh! It is Clarisse!
She…
Influenced him
To reflect upon 
Life
Guy Montag sees
His role differently
Hmm…
He sees his life
In another light –
Good! 
He played with fire
He explores the world – 
Burned!
