F is for fire.
A light snow for November
the archway was dark
the courtyard was filling
a good crowd
the stink of fear on their breath
like soured wine
a good crowd
considering the weather
some looked at the sky
it was white and signless
the children's feet were cold
nothing went as planned
the straw wouldn't catch
a priest sent running to the stables
the speeches fell flat.
