Tuesday, November 1, 2022 Sunsets and Pumpkins


If I told you that the setting sun was a giant pumpkin in the sky, would you have any evidence to the contrary? I suppose you’d regurgitate all sorts of science-y sounding jargon about giant balls of gas. But then you’d be guilty of killing a metaphor. And how would you be able to look yourself in the mirror after that?

If I delete this post, will I have metaphorical blood on my hands?
