Gas Explosion IV

This is the girl all tattered and torn,
that was burned by the gas
that came from the pipe
that was fractured by concrete
that was put where it shouldn’t
that exacerbated another problem
that had gone undetected since the 30’s
that ended in the leak
that blew up the house
that Jack (or someone like him) built.
