Will I Be One in Fifty Thousand At The Burn This Year?

There are all kinds of people that Go To The Burn.

And plenty more still who won’t Go To The Burn.

 Will I be one in fifty thousand?

That shall attend The Burn this year? 

By lottery or auction,

Or perhaps a financier?

 

There will be those who” Got A Ticket!”

And those that work and wait…

 

Last year there were lots of “Big Names!”

That waited till “Too Late.”

 

There are people, who have gone,

Who say they’ll “Never Go Again!”

 

Those who are, “Absolutely Going!”

They just “Don’t Know When.”

 

Some, whom we hold close and dear at The Burn.

Others we are told, “loathe and fear” at The Burn.

 

There are some that go “Just To Play With Fire!”

And others that consider themselves “Guns For Hire.”

 

There are plenty of those who come “With The Band”

And thousands more still that “Wanna hold your hand…

 

At The Burn.

 

There are people you don’t even know at The Burn.

 

So why should we care, if we Go To The Burn??

 

Something is happening out there in the desert.

Tens of thousands of people living Life In The Present.

 

Somehow that just doesn’t happen everywhere else.

 

Over fifty thousand people,

Strangely acting like Themselves.

 

WendeWho!
