Fire In The Bakery

Something went terribly wrong while baking eclairs
A gas leak followed by a flame and a spark
Broken glass flying and people screaming for help
Trapped in a kitchen clouded with smoke

A desperate situation was starting to unfold
Anxiety sets off like a trap just sprung
The fire extinguisher must be somewhere
Your mind declares this affirmation

Choking now with vision blinded by tears
Crawling toward a small red cylinder
Hands finding it, an act of serendipity
You could not reiterate enough the danger you were in

You spat thick spittle and taste the soot in your mouth
What you set out to do some would consider unfathomable
To flee a blazing fire before losing consciousness
The audible fire sounding nocturne to your ears

Spraying away fighting heat and flame
A path was cleared to the nearest room
You searched one by one to make sure all were safe
Finally at last you departed this sweet furnace

Only one word can describe how you feel
Surviving this terrible, terrifying development
You have proven yourself to be audacious
Now you feel supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
