Wow. I never knew that was what it was about. I thought it was about an arsonist who was so dissatisfied as to destroy everything because of, "Girls work hard for small rewards" etc, I thought that she was describing things that have been taken away from her so she burns down some place, especially because it says "MY little shirtwaiste fire..." I think this is beautiful and I love the part where she says, "Such a sweet face trapped in the staircase by the smell of her own burning hair."
