A Different Kind of Heat-Pantoum

There’s nothing comparable to a midnight sky,
and a campfire surrounded by friends and Louisiana brush.
Stories are shared along with the occasional spooky one,
but we laugh and cry waiting for the night to never end.

A campfire surrounded by friends and Louisiana brush
only brings us new memories and a change to reminisce.
We laugh and cry waiting for the night to never end,
because tomorrow is the Monday and another week of school.

New memories and a change to reminisce
means making us closer together than we are already,
because tomorrow is the Monday and another week of school.
However, we are still huddled around this fire now.

The fire is making us closer together than we are already,
Which is scary because we are all sharing the same blanket.
However, we are still huddled around this fire now,
and are dreading tomorrow and our bladders.

It is scary that we are all sharing the same blanket,
and don’t understand how someone hasn’t pissed their pants yet.
We sit here dreading tomorrow and our bladders.
The fire sizzles and releases a repulsive odor.
