Holy wow. That was great. I loved the beautiful imagery of the flames, and the outrage that the marshal should defile it in such a way. Wonderful!

LOL @ OrangeOreos’ comment. “Holy wow,” indeed. And I’m always a sucker for good closing lines.

mc 900 foot Jesus did a song called “while the city sleeps” …or something like that about ab arsonist , check that out, this is an incredibly evocative piece…love it

ya.. great start here… i think you painted a wonderful picture here …

I’ll give you another holy wow. I love the depth and beauty of the descriptions. I love me some fire.

I agree with everything said here :)
