Things Seen

[bunn]

An older woman, her face surrounded by a dramatic grey curly bush of wild hair, wearing a smart dark red velvet trouser suit with a tailored jacket,  stomping enthusiastically on top of a fiercely-smoking bonfire.

I hope she's not going to have to try to get the smoke out of the velvet later.   But it was such an odd thing to wear for the task, I am guessing there is some special significance to it.  Perhaps she will take off the velvet suit, once all the other things are burned, and ritually burn that too.

I vote for post-divorce burning! Although that always seemed so wasteful to me. I rather clean out the cheater's closet and take it all to a thrift shop or a charity store.

That would probably be less stinky too, but perhaps less satisfying.

But far, far away from me, for the health of the new wearer.
