Here, hold my beer...

 

The fuse was short

the match was lit

there was no time

be rid of it

 

In later years

what could he say

his fingers went

the other way.

I have had several firecrackers blow up in my hand, but only got burns and blisters. Still have all digits. I consider myself one of the lucky ones.
