I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

Glad I checked the tags, I was mulling over how drifting could be related to your stovetop!
I was doing a similar mulling….haha! And then I decided to check out the post. I didn’t initially connect to hot air balloons. 🙂 And I’m glad I looked, too.
No, no, you see it was play on the idea. In saying a lesser person would make the joke, the joke was being made. Note the circularity. It is like saying only a silly person would wear an orange tie … while you wear an orange tie. It is noted for its irony.
Actually, there was a bit of worry over the comment’s interpretation. Visions of drawn out social media drama filled the mind. It was like a reality show – it was horrible. Thankfully the humor of the comment went through and this didn’t happen. Happiness again fills the land.

Probably not a very good haiku that relies on a photograph and tags. I’ll be doing more balloon ones soon.

A lesser person, might make a joke about those balloons being filled with hot air. A lesser person would. 😉

I know, I was joking back. I am not as earnest as I might seem.
