the dinner bells are ringing

i know
that dinner is ready. because

i can hear the smoke alarm
going off.

the neighbors
are knocking on the door.

someone's rescue
dog is howling.

the firetruck
is on the way., i can hear

the scream of sirens.

i turn the burner off.
again

the sweet butter
and onions have burned

around my steak.
