It was one of her more sane days, but she still had an urge that had been gnawing on her for some time. She loved to sit and watch a fire burn, but she hadn't really gotten to do that here. So, with a piece of gum she had gotten from one of the nicer soldiers and a battery she had stolen from one of the doctors, she set off to the woods, hoping to find a place where she wouldn't get caught.
Finally she found a nice, secluded clearing and began to gather up some sticks, arranging them in a pretty little teepee. Then with a trick she had learned from another patient, she set the sticks ablaze.
For hours, she sat there, staring almost lifelessly at the fire, amazing by it's beauty. However, it soon wasn't enough. How could she make this small, hungry fire even better? Make it bigger of course. How though? Set the trees ablaze? No, she would get caught. Find more sticks? That might work, but by the time she could find good ones, the fire might be all gone.
Feeling frustrated and defeated, she just sat down in front of her little fire and began to cry.
