Brooklyn, New York – A blackened microwave, its frame warped by heat, lay abandoned, while the bent frame of a lawn chair sat nearby. A heap of clothes, half-melted, and the singed remains of a Bible were strewn across the forest floor, surrounded by charred pinecones – a stark reminder of what once existed here. Underneath a canopy of burnt trees in a small, somber clearing in the northwest corner of Prospect Park, remnants of the devastation caused by a rampant fire were evident. A homeless
