Fire Machine



The fire machine seems, at onset,
To be working as required
By the manufacture’s design,
Not at all excessively dirty
Or filling with non-combusting pellets.
It’s a nice little machine
Producing an actual wood burning like flame
At the touch of a couple buttons,
With a nice distribution of heat
Due to the fan.
It would, however, become useless
In the event of a power failure
Or the discontinuation of the pellets.
If you’re a prepper,
A large stock of pellets would be required
Along with a sizeable storage area,
Somewhat moisture free,
As the forty pound bags swell when wet
And could rupture whatever structure they were in
If packed to tight.
So in the event of societal collapse
An old fashion wood stove would be preferable.
Otherwise, the pellet stoves are fine.
The air intake does require a little fine tuning
For it to burn at the proper rate.
