The chunks near the top of the bag (though
irregular in size and shape) were
large enough to produce heat
before falling through.

As I delved deeper,
the chunks have become progressively
smaller.

I have engaged in silly
machinations, trying to
predict which pieces,
which small bits (strategically placed)
would best contribute to the
ultimate demise of the larger pieces.
Never again.

I can’t recommend

Small pieces burn fast
