Fireworks Satire
I have always had a fascination with fire, and like you can guess, that particular fascination has
gotten me into trouble with burning myself, my clothes, and in this particular stories my neighbor's
lawn. Thirteen years ago at our old house on Heritage Blvd on the fourth of July my mother got
sick, so instead of our usual Fourth of July tradition of popping fireworks at our grandmothers house,
we were stuck at home. The plan was to wait until our mother felt better to go pop fireworks, so like
good children, my brothers and I nodded our heads and went off to play, and that lasted for about
maybe twenty minutes before we got bored. My brothers Colten and Tyler had the bright idea to
steal the fireworks and walk around the neighborhood, and I being about six at the time thought
this was the best idea in the world. I looked up to my brothers, and they were older and smarter
than me so I did not see the harm in going for a walk around the block and popping off some
firecrackers. We did not think anyone would care, and we were completely wrong. As we walked
around throwing firecrackers in front yards and mailboxes, people would rush out of their homes

As we walked on we started using roman candles to shoot at trees and street signs, and being
stupid kids we got the bright idea to shoot them at each other. The game was short lived as we had
the roman candles that would pop, so when my brother Tyler shot me; not only did it explode and
catch my shirt on fire, but it also temporarily made me deaf with a ring in my ears for about ten
minutes. At that point my brothers decided we should stop and head home. We turned around and
began to head back, but we still had some fireworks left, so on the way back we began popping the
rest, but we kept them away from the houses, and stayed near the hills and puddles and
