PYROPHOBIA

Fear of fire ….
With this fear you’re not going
to experience the joy of a couch -
being under a blanket - with others -
laughing and looking at a fireplace
and not the TV or an iPhone -
only crackling logs on fire….
Ooops! With this  fear
you’re going to miss out
on picnics and toasted marshmallows….
You’ll have to use wind power
and never look at the sun….
You better live next to a fire house
and you have an open window
on that side of your  house to yell from ….
Think living in a rain forest - far from
all places that have forest fires ….
