The Quantum Metaphor

Something is lost
literalized poetry
Something may be gained
a disciplined imaginative lens

Socratic question

Where does metaphor illuminate, and where does it mislead?

Small practice

Label one statement fact, symbol, or speculation.

Illustration direction

A sparse field of obsidian, indigo haze, emerald points, one interrupted line, and a gold threshold. The lost form recedes; the possible gain remains incomplete.
