If I said my heart was a cyanide laced pomegranate, would that make its expressions any less ****** If I said falling in love was like throwing yourself off a cliff on a winter night and drowning yourself tumbling through the air blind like a bag of kittens, but I was quoting Kierkegaard, would that make it any less of an awkward melodrama? If I told you the western blocks blind attacks on the other, kinda resembled Freud's account of the mother of a miscarriages melancholia, is that a condoning or a condemnation? if I translated every meta-narrative of class relation, oppression, wage slavery, state violence, suppression, into anthropomorphic allegories for a myriad of psychological phenomena, would I be an academic or a shinto miko? [and would the world be any better?] if I superimposed on the geographical topology, the political and then the existential, would I have a sandwich? Or a lasagne?
