Tick.
Tick!
Tick, tick!
Tick, tick, tick!
the fire takes hold.
Tick, tick, tick!
warm, once cold.
Tick, tick, tick!
the woodstove heat;
Tick, tick, tick!
it's warming my feet.
Tick, tick, tick!
hotter and hotter...
Tick, tick, tick!
I need some water!
Tick, tick, tick!
that's hot enough!
Tick, tick, tick!
I'm in the buff!
Tick, tick, tick!
stop feeding it!
Tick, tick, tick!
just let it sit.
Tick, tick, tick.
ah, it's cooling.
Tick, tick, tick
no more fueling.
Tick, tick.
Tick.
