It was just my interpretation of what I saw...a Jiffy Lube building, late at night, when I was on my way home from my recent workshop. The poem describes how I felt on seeing this building, standing there in the dark. And the balloons were really sagging! So, no, not much metaphor going on here...

And so, yes, more an exercise in imagery...

I'm glad you enjoyed it!
