Firemen
Firemen
Serve
Bravely
Fighting flames
Risking their lives
Facing dangerous infernos of death.
Families fear as firemen save lives
hellholes raging
destroying
blazing
death.

Poetic form: Tetractys
Dedicated to firemen around the world. But particularly to my son-in-law, Steven Collins,
who has risked himself and saved others. I love you for your valor and because of who you
are. Love, Mom2.
