I Do Not Want You Burning Stuff
I do not want you burning stuff, my husband says
this is tantamount to waving a red flag in front of a bull
you already set fire to the dumpster he reminds me
not once or twice, but twenty-six or seven times
I do not reply, because a reply would be a no-win.
I believe in a win-win; especially after my husband goes to bed
I stack up a little pile of boxes and begin my fifth bonfire this week
