Scaring the Rats Away
Peter
or his brother Steven
(spelled with a 'v' which is always harsher
and more council-house the a 'ph')
drops a match sown the hole,
unaware of the small mountain
of old newspapers down there
and ran away when the fire started.
I'd never seen a fire engine so close
you couldn't open the front door
and let's just say my father
was less than amused.
