The heart is symbolized by the sun

My enemy is the simile - that it is ‘like’ something.

My aspiration is the metaphor - it IS this

                 - it IS crushed    - it IS fragile 

Not about the image of the thing, but about the condition it is in.

  1. Oh, the considerations!
    Completely off the real topic, these words remind me of how I was recently reflecting on how my mom, an English teacher would go nuts when the teens she taught added "like" in front of everything they said. lol the strange brain connections.
