burke: Prompted by Kelen's 'Catching Breath'

under a roof 
so much to burn
 
for three nights
we sniffed as we
watched tv
 
air laced with smoke
 
outside still
strong as ever
I checked the roof
 
no flames in sight
 
today 
out shopping 
we hear of
rogue leaf burners
under the moon
beside the Murray River
 
tonight we breathe easy
