27,
But it feels like 100.
A full glass,
Sitting on the brink of spilling over.
So you sit, thinking: "What to do?"
If you spill, the water can destroy people, places, the whole cities and civilizations.
All the goods will be lost forever.
All the hard gathered minerals will be wasted into the night.
So you sit, thinking: "What if I get a new glass? A bigger one? A wider one? No water will spill
then, and new can come in."
No fear of devastation, no fear of waste.
But, you have to choose wisely.
The glass you choose now might be the last,
And once it is filled up, there is no escaping.
But it feels like 100.
