Technology – Fire

Man has known fire for 6000 years

James has never known a campfire

James tried to replenish a dying ember

The ember still gave off heat

James had two faggots 

He went to place the first in the dying fire

The heat burned James’ hand 

He dropped the second faggot

On another’s foot 

He writhed in pain claiming that his hand was on fire

The other’s foot went away with a broke toe

And James’ hand had no hair left on his hand.
