FIREMAN
We live on the 21st floor of our building.
Every couple of days I see a man
Walking up and down the steps —
Up and down — up and down.
I asked him why.
He said, "I'm a fireman."
We live on the 21st floor of our building.
One day last week I decided to try
Walking up and down the steps —
Up and down — as he does.
I guess I'm a fireman.
There are other kinds of fires.

Very intriguing through it's simplicity complemented by an ending of complexity. "there are other kinds of fires" what a lovely conclusion! God bless you in Jesus' name,

feel the burn...
a little quirky in its real life observations - I like it.
I had to walk down 23 flights recently at work on a fire drill and my thighs ached for a week after.
