Bond Fire

          a  fire lite
    underneath a bank
  the smell of burnt money
    in the air around me

           * * *
      as I walk away
   all warm and toasty
    something money
    never bought  me

just look at my icon

it is a tattoo over my heart I planned the target as the 2 towers, but that became distasteful after 911. I only meant it to burn money, not people. cheers, Jess
