A Very Comfy Spot

The truth is out there.

“By day, cherry-scent from an unknown Wood near the town. July Holding new constellations, deep At night in the transparent sky -”

Percy Bysshe Shelley, from “Prometheus Unbound”

– @loeypark ;

“I prefer to express myself metaphorically. Let me stress: metaphorically, not symbolically. A symbol contains within itself a definite meaning, certain intellectual formula, while metaphor is an image. An image possessing the same distinguishing features as the world it represents. An image — as opposed to a symbol — is indefinite in meaning. One cannot speak of the infinite world by applying tools that are definite and finite. We can analyse the formula that constitutes a symbol, while metaphor is a being-within-itself, it’s a monomial. It falls apart at any attempt of touching it.”

— Andrei Tarkovsky
