/// Brenna leans out her window and learns,
only two streets away A House Burns.
With a cough she awoke
to the sharp smell of smoke.
Oddly, now for a bratwurst she yearns.

She heard sirens, and then saw the flash/
And she knew she must gather her “stash”/
As quick as she could/
For Chicago was wood/
And that wood would all soon become ash.///
It has something to do with a cow/
(Nobody remembers) – but now/
The prevalent theory/
Is that Missus O’Leary/
Is to blame – but nobody knows how…///
The place was rebuilt overnight/
And this time they did the job right/
Now it’s much better known/
For a guy called Capone/
Is that fire forgotten ? Not quite…

Bob was warned not to hold a lit match near his butt after eating beans. So of course he had to see what might happen.
