The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

The Earth Is a Huge Balloon

The earth is a huge balloon
Floating in the sea of space
The sides are flat and slippery
Covered with a blanket so fragile

Human beings are free riders
Holding firmly on all the sides
Many lose grip of it and fall off
Vanishing into dark holes in space

There are those who are pushed
By the powerful riders on the balloon
Others seek to sail but get red cards
Denying them due shares in the ride

Crazy riders are tearing the balloon
Once punctured, destiny is obscure
