"my emptiness burst"
"Expired but still rising
past putrefaction
devoured by microbes"
"I am busted."
My friend, when I see a deflated balloon all I can think of is farting noises. You have gone to another dimension and took us with you. The poem is significant and timely. There is too much talk these days of a crypto bubble ignoring the hubris bubble. I am glad for you because anytime we are as this low as this balloon we will rise again.
Hahaha! Great comment @mineopoly. You really know how to lighten the mood! And of course you always manage to parse your wonderful insight into a few words of precision. For that, I'm grateful!
