Cartoon Ball

It had escaped from its owner’s house and was exploring the world for the first time. It saw a row of spikes on the ground and thought they looked like fun. It decided to jump over them, one by one, feeling a thrill of adrenaline. It didn’t notice that the spikes were getting closer and sharper, until it was too late. The ball landed on the last spike, puncturing its skin and deflating its spirit. It was the end of its adventure and its life.
