the heat

The Heat
Summer heat and no rain a tourist threw a burnt match
Into straw it took fire and the blaze spread from this point
to all countries that neither was nor protected by a sea wall.
the people where the fire began ran to a lake only the lake
was so dry, it caught fire too. Black smoke and white smoke
mingled became grey smoke and it rained for days.
It was a time of austerity man in towns and beast in nature
suffered meanly the first year of no fire.

A world conference was held it was now against the law to
carry matches only the state could. I few countries were
allowed to keep lighters too, those who didn´t have them
were band from the ball room. Those who burnt in the lake
were given their own land, they have matches and lighters

and big wall so high, the land is almost deep as a lake.
