Hi there! Thanks again for reaching me out ^^ I'd like to request a matchup for JJK, MHA and Haikyuu please!

Name: you can use Yuno if needed :)

Pronouns: he/him

Sexuality: I'd like to be paired with male characters

Zodiac: Sagittarius

Appearance: east Asian, slim build, black short hair (two blocks haircut), I wear cargo pants with t-shirts (either black, grey or white) and sneakers. I prefer practical clothes. The simpler the better.

Personality: funny, curious, love to eat and travel, make new interesting friends, discover new activities and new places. I'm also analytical, I understand things people don't say or explain. Loved-ones say I can be blunt, opinionated, creative and love to persuade others. Independent, hard to know and anticipate. I really like to tease people, and even those I do not know well yet.

Likes: spring, summer, dots and cats, eating, traveling, try new activites/dishes, chill out on the sofa, sometimes play video games (Zelda BOTW and TOTK, Okami, Smash Bros, Life is Strange...), watching movies at the cinema, joking around and teasing people, laughing without any restraint, a nice walk in the countryside.

Dislikes: noisy people for no reason, brainless people, people walking too slow, rain, autumn.

Hobbies: writing with people, walking around, eating, going out, cooking, gardening.

extras: I'm a spring/summer person even if I have a hard time standing the heat, I prefer cats but I have a doggo energy somehow. I enjoy writing with others people (never alone because I get bored), discussing about philosophy, joking around and challenge authority.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Juno! Thank you for your request! Sorry it took a while. I hope you like your matchups!

In Jujutsu Kaisen, I match you with...

You and Megumi are both quite blunt and while you might think that would lead to conflict, it actually leads to a very open and clear relationship.

He’s so glad you like dogs. Sure, his divine dogs are there to help him with his curse expelling work but he does have a soft spot for them. He’ll call them out so they can say hello to you from time to time.

I don’t see him as a fan of noisy people either (despite spending so much time around people like Nobara and Itadori). He’s happy to just spend time with you.

Megumi enjoys discussing philosophy with you a lot more than he thought he would. I see him as someone who likes deep conversation but only with a few select people. You fall into that category for him.

I think Megumi would enjoy gardening with you. It’s something relaxing and he can turn his mind off while doing it. Plus he gets to enjoy your presence while you both concentrate on the job at hand.

In My Hero Academia, I match you with...

You and Shoto are a good match since you’re both very different and very similar. You balance each other out in the best ways.

Loves taking walks with you. It really clears his mind and he gets to spend time with you one on one so it’s a win-win.

I think Shoto would also enjoy trying new foods with you. Sure, he knows what he likes but he’s also open to trying new things, especially if you’re trying them with him.

Writing pals! I see Shoto as someone who likes writing down his thoughts and being a bit poetic from time to time. If he gets to write with you and then swap work, he’d have a blast.

Please help him make new friends as well. He’s only got a handful of them and he’d love to make more. He’s just not sure how to go about it without some help.

In Haikyuu, I match you with...

You and Daichi would be rest buddies. He tends to over work himself sometimes so it’s good having you there to make him take regular breaks when he needs them.

I think Daichi would enjoy trying new things with you. He’s got volleyball but he’s always looking to try out new hobbies and broaden his horizons.

He likes that you’re opinionated. Being the captain of a volleyball team means you have to be decisive and have strong opinions. Being with someone who’s the same is good for him.

No need to worry about slow walkers when you’re around Daichi. He’s super tall and takes long strides so he’s a very fast walker. If anything, you might need him to slow down.

I think Daichi would also enjoy travelling and exploring new places so he’d love to tag along with you whenever you go somewhere new. He’d also invite you along whenever the team goes away for a match or a competition.

Hmm... As a coiner, I imagine you get a lot of requests, so how about a game to distract you? So... What is your favorite fictional relationship? Which character gives you the most gender envy? Which character do you think would have an identity more similar (If not identical) to yours? And, just to finish because I have little space to write, tell me a character and a label OF YOUR CREATION that you think they would use (I hope this sounds like fun and not literally an scary interview)

anon i love u /p i love getting asks like this ahhhhhhhhhhhhh thank you! okay here goes!!! putting under a cut because this got longggggg /pos

1- favorite fictional relationship

this is like. hard to answer because i love so many fictional relationships. and it also depends on the kind of relationship so i guess my favorite fictional romantic relationship is kurt and blaine (klaine) from glee. i feel like, while glee is undoubtedly a show with a large amount of issues, and in my humble queer opinion is not nearly as queer-friendly as it's lauded to be, it does a good job of portraying that queer relationships can be just as fucking toxic and messy as non-queer ones. both the characters are flawed but have emotional depth, the relationship is very toxic at some points but it provides both the characters the space they need to grow as people which is ultimately what makes it work, and it also deals with specific issues gay men can face from both within their romantic relationships, and outside them. also i just really love both the characters and think they're super cute togetherrrrrrrrr. here's a few pictures because. ahhhh.

[Image ID: Two photos of the same fictional couple, Klaine (Kurt and Blaine) from Glee. In the first picture, the couple, two thin white teenaged boys with short brown hair, are standing in a classroom at their school, with Blaine on the left in a grey blazer and Kurt in the right in a grey turtleneck sweater, each smiling and gazing into each others' eyes. In the second picture, the two are standing in front of a pink curtain and a mirror with lights on it for a photo-booth-esque prom photo shoot. Blaine is on the left in a standard black tuxedo and a red corsage, and Kurt is on the right in a black tuxedo jacket and black skirt, holding a crown scepter with a pink corsage, with his arm around Blaine's shoulder. Both are smiling. End ID.]

now, when it comes to my favorite fictional platonic relationship, no question it's travic (travis and vic) from station 19. i love both of the individual characters so much, and they're best friends and honestly for me their friendship is why i watch the show, it's just so wholesome and i love them so much. they're both amazing people and also both extremely adorable and i have a massive crush on both of them.

[Image ID: A photograph of two characters, Travis Montgomery and Victoria Hughes, from the show Station 19. The pair are sitting next to each other in front of a dusty brown wall, both dressed in their firefighter uniforms. Victoria, a light-skinned Black woman with hair pulled back in a tight bun, is sitting on the left with a wide smile, and Travis, a mixed white and Korean man with short dark brown hair, is sitting on the right and smiling brightly as well. End ID.]

2. character that gives me the most gender envy

this is such a good question and the answer is i don't know but probably magnus bane from shadowhunters. he's fairly flamboyant and openly queer and i just. idk. as a butch who's also femme he's perfect gender envy for me and i love him

[Image ID: A picture of Magnus Bane, a character from the show Shadowhunters, standing in his apartment while on the phone. He is of eastern-Asian descent, with a haircut that is half buzzed and half grown out and swooped over his head. He is wearing a long-sleeved maroon shirt with gold patterns on it, a few necklaces, silver rings, and black nail polish. In his hands he is holding a mostly empty glass that still has a drink in it. He has a serious look on his face. End ID.]

3. Which character do you think would have an identity more similar (If not identical) to yours?

okay so im a transmasc pan lesbian/sapphic and that's the exact hc i have for max from stranger things. which is actually uh. my pfp so yeah dasfadsf i love her and i will forever die on the hill that she is transmasc, pan, and lesbian and i love her so much

4. a character and a label of your creation that you think they would use

this is a good one and i honestly haven't thought about it that much but i think maybe scorpia from she-ra would identify as a sunflower sapphic. i definitely hc her as an ace sapphic but now that i think about it, she definitely seems much more interested in qpr and platonic stuff than in romance and she seems to get more squishes than actual romantic stuff. so while i dont exactly see her as omniaspec i do kinda see her as a sunflower sapphic (sapphic who is omniaspec but sapphic oriented)

#🌌written in the stars ; asks🌌#anon feel free to send more of these i love thissss

TGIWednesday: It's just a haircut

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime" - Lao Tzu

TGIWednesday News

The gentleman that usually cuts my hair was out the other day, so they sent me down to Mindy. She seemed nice, was a pretty, slender, Asian young lady, but the giveaway sign was she had really short hair. I sat down in her chair and we shared a laugh about how short men were cutting their hair these days. I wanted a “long cut” ie: barely trimmed and zero products. She seemed to understand. Told her to use scissors not the electric razor and that I had a weird cow lick just above my forehead that had to go shorter! She turned around grabbed her electric trimmers and before I knew what was happening I thought I was at the military induction center barber shop. Oh my gosh. At the end, the specific cow lick area above my forehead she twisted with her fingers and actually made it more pronounced. She then said, “I know you don’t want any products in your hair, so I’m just going to use a little bit.” This is a true story lol. Now my hair will grow out, and I will get back to my Samson glory, but Mindy won’t cut my hair again... as in EVER. My mother Granny Ruth used to say, “You have to be a good listener and listen to everyone!" And I make every effort to strive in healings and prayers to get clients what they want or better - being mindful not to force my will on others, ever. What mundane thing or event will you experience today that could be a valuable life lesson? Keep the faith and all things moving forward on All Saint’s Day and let’s make it a glorious holiday season.

I know, when, where, how and why to be in a constant sense of wonderment, watching and knowing in order to improve my life and those around me.

Tips on Choosing Hair Stylists

How your hair is styled is a very personal choice, and so is choosing your hair stylists. Hair styling is not always easy for one person to do on their own. A hair stylist is a great option for somebody wanting to give their hair a professional look.

Each hair stylist is a type of artist. Artists are all unique in their own ways, and likewise stylists are also unique in how they choose to style hair.

When it comes to styling, professional hair care treatment gives you insight into what looks best for your hair and how it match your face shape. It is important to seek out a stylist who has experience working with your type of hair. Your length of hair may ultimately decide what stylist you go to. If you have long hair, you're not going to want to visit a stylist that primarily deals with short hair, and vice versa. This is the same for different types of hair. If you are Caucasian, your hair type will not be the same as somebody who is African American or Asian. Different types of ethnicity have a different consistency of hair from one another.

However, many stylists are versatile in how they can style hair. Most stylists can style more than one type of hair. This comes to their advantage by having a wider client range and creates a wider income potential. These types of hairdressers come in handy if you are somebody who is always changing the look of their hair.

When choosing a hair stylist, keep in mind that when you choose one stylist you will gain more benefits. They will know what styles suit you, have more to talk about when you visit, and also may give you added discounts for being a frequent customer. You're going to want to pick somebody that you'll connect with, because choosing a hairdresser is like picking out a new friend. You want to be able to look forward to visiting your hair stylist, not dreading it.

Choosing hair stylists can be a daunting task. You will come across stylists that you will not get along with, and you will not like their style. If you receive a "bad haircut" from a stylist during your search, don't worry. Hair always grows back. Rest assured, even if you don't find one on the first or second try, that there will be a hair stylist out there for you.

Choosing The Right Hairstylist Mexico For Yourself

Styling the hair depends upon individual choices, however it also depends largely upon your choice of the hair stylist. Styling the hair is not an easy task as it might sound like a cake walk to some.

A hair-stylist is a person who is not only professional towards the work he or she does but also sensible and open toward discussing about how one person can change his or her personality with right type of hair style and not just the type that is going around popular in the town at some particular point of time.

Meet New Hair Stylist Mexico would bring about a positive change in the way you look and carry yourself around. You can choose one of the best stylist London UK but make sure you have enough good reviews to read and know about them.

These professional hair stylists are often known to use the up-to-date and latest hair care treatments that will also give you a fair idea about which styles are apt and matching for your face cut and face shape. This will ensure that they have dressed your type of hair before and have fair knowledge about what works and what does not work for your hair type. Many stylists will start by having a look at your style length to decide upon the options available for styling to be done for such length.

How Often Should You Get a Haircut at the Barber Shop?

Do you want to know what is the best way to schedule an appointment? Look no further, as this article contains all you should know. This article explains how to maintain your hairstyle as well as the best way to find a skilled barber.

How Fast Does Your Hair Grow?

The average hair growth is 6 inches every year. There are many factors that can affect hair growth. Hair growth is more noticeable for men than women due to the fact that they have shorter hairstyles.

Your hair's growth rate can be affected by genetics and age. It can also affect the amount of hair your strands are, and their shade and texture. Asian hair grows more quickly than African Americans'. Additionally, people from Caucasian backgrounds are lighter and thinner.

The growth of your hair is also affected by your health and fitness. Deficiency in vitamin D or other health issues can cause hair loss and loss.

How often should you have a haircut?

This question is answered by the hairstyle you select and the hairstyle you choose. The budget you choose to stick to is equally important. Some styles will need you to visit the barbers more often, and this can be costly.

The greatest care is needed when it comes to sharp hairstyles with sharp parts or undercuts. This is due to the fact that the growth of hair will be evident with these haircuts. You will need to have an appointment every two weeks, as the skin will fade quickly.

Men tend to have medium-to-short hair. Quiffs, cuts, and crop parts are just a few examples. These styles have more wiggle space in regards to how often they require cutting. To keep your hairstyle in good shape you must visit the barber at least once every three to six weeks.

Hairstyles that are longer are more flexible. Hair only grows about half an inch each month, meaning it's less obvious on longer hair. A barber should be consulted If your hair feels heavy or split ends. Getting longer hair cut every 2-6 months is enough.

Personal preferences are also a factor when it comes to decide how often should men get a haircut. Do not be afraid to have a medium cut , but require your sides and back cut after two weeks. If you don't require a full haircut some barbers will provide reduced prices. Ask around to find out other alternatives.

Finding the Most Effective Barber

youtube

You need to believe in the barber's ability. A skilled barber can help you choose the best hairstyle that suits you. This will depend on your hair type and personal hairstyle.

Find a barber you would like to work with if you're searching for a place to have a haircut each two weeks. This makes the process enjoyable for both you as well as the barber.

Social media is a great way to locate barbers. It's simple to read reviews about their work and look at photos of haircuts that have been done previously. It is also possible to find the prices of their services to allow you to pick an option that fits within your budget.

Cut your hair, feel Good.

It can be challenging to figure out the meaning of how often should you trim your hair is referring to. You now have all the details you require to pick a hair-care routine that works for you.

OoH, I was asking for jjk to be insecure and the oc comforting him. Sorry for not being specific 😣

I WILL BE WAITIN FOR IT!✨✨✨✨❤❤❤❤

oh thank god i stopped before i wrote the whole damn thing then 💀 no need to be sorry!! and i hope u enjoy 💕💕💕💕

Do you ever look at someone and wonder, what is going on inside their head? In past tense of course, because Taehyung doesn't know what was going on inside Jungkook's head when he chopped half of his hair off. He doesn't care to wonder for long either—he's too busy laughing his heart out at Jungkook's baby face while said man glares at him with pure hatred. It's been going on for ten minutes now, from the moment he sat down with the squad in the courtyard.

"Laugh it up, Taehyung," Jungkook seethes through clenched teeth, "you look like a fucking mental institution escapee, you absolute moron."

"I-I'm sorry," he says breathlessly, "but you look like a fucking twelve year old with piercings! Doesn't he?" The rest of the group can understand the comparison, though Jungkook doesn't look that young with the common haircut, but it baffles them why Taehyung is losing his shit over it.

"I think he looks fine," Seokjin shrugs.

"He actually looks better, to be honest," Namjoon agrees.

Taehyung blows raspberries in disbelief. "Yoongi, are you hearing this?"

"You're functioning on one brain cell," he deadpans and tunes out the rest of the discussion with his earphones.

"All I'm saying is, you didn't need to cut it so short," Jungkook's best friend defends.

"What was I supposed to do? Look like the Asian Jesus Christ?" Taehyung giggles at his response before gradually laughing his ass off at the image in his mind. Jungkook takes this as his cue to leave already and stands from the bench.

"Wha– where you going?" he asks through fits of laughter.

"I've had enough of your bullshit."

"I-I can't wait to hear what your girlfriend has to say about it!" he yells at his back, his voice fading in Jungkook's ears the farther he walks away.

It's all fun and games until Taehyung brings you into this. He was pretty confident with his new appearance before his friend basically sucked it out of him. He's aware that he was just joking around, but now he's weary of your reaction.

He blows at his dark brown bangs in frustration and decides against approaching you after your lecture. He needs his confidence back first.

————

Ending a day without seeing Jungkook once feelings wrong. Your interactions are digital because he refuses to meet with you by using every excuse in the book in every hour of the day that you ask. It's at midnight when you finally muster the courage to confront him.

You: did i do something wrong?? listen i know ur not studying

You: can u please just tell me why ur avoiding me

♡ the love of my life ♡: i'm literally texting u

♡ the love of my life ♡: how is that avoiding

You: u know what i mean!!

♡ the love of my life ♡: not really!!

You: :/

You: is it because of ur haircut?

♡ the love of my life ♡: what

You: taehyung asked me if i saw ur hair today and he couldnt stop laughing when i said no

♡ the love of my life ♡: u can see it on my mugshot after i kill that fucking cunt

You: im coming to ur dorm

♡ the love of my life ♡: no

♡ the love of my life ♡: no no no no

His protests fall on blind eyes and it's remarkable how fast you arrive in front of his door. You knock twice and a muffled voice says, "Not available!"

"Really?" you shriek incredulously. "I'm literally your girlfriend."

A different voice repeats the same words, and adds, "coming from someone who isn't your boyfriend." It's Seokjin, and you know for a fact that Jungkook forced him to say that.

"Jungkook," you groan and stomp your foot angrily. "This is childish! Come out this second."

And the door actually opens. "Jin! What the fuck?"

"I'll leave," he says and holds the door open for you. You rush inside before Jungkook can slam it in your face, and when he realizes he can't, he freezes like a deer caught in headlights.

The door clicks when it closes. You stare at him in awe and he gulps under the intensity.

He breaks the short silence with a groan, "I know I look like a twelve–"

"Oh my God," you cut him off, admiration written all over your face. He sinks into the mattress with a frown.

"Don't."

"You look so handsome!" you rush to his side to touch his fluffy hair that ends at his ears. You're used to his longer hair that ended above his shoulders, but this cut shows off his beauty so much better, similar to when you first met him. "I can't believe you were so shy about it."

"I wasn't shy! Taehyung just... Ugh!" he growls and falls on the bed. He can't even tell if you're just being nice or telling the truth at this point. "Listen, if you don't like it, you can just tell me."

"I love it so much," you straddle his waist to run your fingers through his hair again, absolutely enthralled by his appearance. He's reluctant to look at you, but when he does, he falls for the gleam in your eyes. You're practically beaming in your spot, "Is there anything you can't pull off?!"

Your gushing flusters him but he doesn't back down from your stare. He's more or less quizzical. "Do you actually like it?"

"It's gorgeous," you sigh, "I can't believe you were hiding it from me."

"Taehyung cried when he saw me."

You snort before cooing, "Don't take that idiot seriously. He's so rude... You have no reason to be insecure."

"Damn, kiss me then," he rolls his eyes. "When you were insec–" He smiles against your lips when you go through with it. You cup his cheeks before pulling away.

"You're perfect in every way, so don't hide from me again. Okay?"

"Uh-uh," he says absentmindedly and chases after your lips, which you grant easily. His confidence starts to show in his movements omce again.

Ocean Vuong on Metaphor

below is a transcript of an Instagram story from Ocean Vuong, available here in his story highlights under Metaphor.

Q: How do you make sure your metaphors have real depth?

metaphors should have two things: (1) sensory (visual, texture, sound, etc) connector between origin image and the transforming image as well as (2) a clear logical connector between both images.

if you have only one of either, best to forgo the metaphor, otherwise it will seem forced or read like “writing” if that makes sense.

a lot of ya’ll asked for examples re:metaphor. I can explain better if I had 15 minutes of class time (apply to UMASS!). But essentially, metaphors that go awry can signal a hurried desire to be “literary” or “poetic” (ie “writing”), which can lose traction/trust with a reader. in other words, a metaphor is a detour—but that detour better lead to discoveries that alter/amplify the meaning of what is already there, so that a reader sees you as a servant of possibility rather than someone trying to prove that they are a “writer.” One is performative, the other exploratory. In this way, the metaphor acts as a virtual medium, ejecting the text’s optical realism into an “elsewhere”. But this elsewhere should inform the original upon our return. otherwise the journey would feel like an ejection from a crash rather than a curated journey toward more complex meaning.

example:

“The road curves like a cat’s tail.”

This is a weak metaphor because the transforming image (tail) does not amplify/alter the original. The transfer of meaning flattens and dies. Logic is weak or moot: A cat’s tail does not really change the nature of the road. You can certainly add to this with a few more expository sentences which might rescue the logic—but by then you’re just doing cpr on your metaphor.

Sensory, too, is weak: a cat’s tail has little optical resemblance to a road other than being curved (roads are not furry, for one.)

So this is 0 for 2 and should be scrapped. (Just my opinion though! Not a rule!)

okay so what about:

“The road runs between two groves of pine, like the first stroke of a buzzcut.”

this is better. the optical sensory of the transforming image (a clipper thru a head of hair) matches well with the original.

but the logic feels arbitrary. again it doesn’t substantially alter the original.

in the end this is just an “interesting image” but not strong enough to keep I’d say.

Now here’s one from Sharon Olds:

“The hair on my father’s arms like blades of molasses.”

Sensory connector: check. A man’s dark hair indeed can look like blades (also suggestive of grass) of molasses.

Logical connector: check. the father is both sharp and sweet. Something once soft and sticky about him (connotations of youth) sweets, has now hardened the confection no longer fresh etc.

It’s an ambitious metaphor that is packed with resonance. In other words, it does worlds of work and actually deepens the more you dit with it. A metaphor that actually invites you to put the book down, think on it, absorb it, before returning. a good metaphor uses detours to add power to the text. poor metaphors distract you from the text and leave you bereft, laid to the side.

lastly, the prior examples are technically “similes” but I believe similes reside under the umbrella of metaphor. although a simile is a demarcation, ie: this is “like” that. but this is “not”, ontologically, that.

however, I think something happens in the act of reading wherein we collapse the “bridge” and the mind automatically forges synergy between the two images, so that all similes, once read, “act” like metaphors in the mind.

but again this is all subjective. you might have a better way of going about it.

Another very ambitious metaphor is this one from Eduardo C. Corral:

“Moss intensifies up the tree, like applause.”

This is a masterful metaphor, risky and requires a lot of faith, restraint, and experience to pull it off.

Difficult mainly because we now see a surrealist “distortion” of the sensory realm: origin IMAGE (moss) is paired with transforming SOUND (applause).

There is now a leap in comparable elements. But the adherence to our two vital factors are still present.

Sensory: moss, though silent, grows slowly (the word “intensifies” does major work here becuz it foreshadows the transforming element). Applause, too, grows gradually, before dying down.

Logic: the growth of the moss suggests spring, lushness, life, resilience, and connotes anticipatory hope, much like applause. In turn, applause modifies the nature of moss and imbues, at least this moss, with a sense of accomplishment, closure, it’s refreshment a cause for celebration.

God I love words.

I’ve gotten so many responses from folks the past few days asking for a deeper dive into my personal theory on metaphor.

So I'm taking a moment here to do a more in-depth mini essay since my answer to the Q/A the other day was off the cuff (I was typing while walking to my haircut appointment).

What I’m proposing, of course, is merely a THEORY, not a gospel, so please take whatever is useful to you and ignore what isn’t.

This essay will be in 25 slides. I will save this in my IG highlights after 24 hrs.

Before I begin I want to encourage everyone to forge your own theories and praxi for your work, especially if you’re a BIPOC artist.

Often, we are perceived by established powers as merely “performers,” suitable for a (brief) stint on stage—but not thinkers and creators with our own autonomy, intelligence, and capacity to question the framework in our fields.

It is not lost on me, as a yellow body in America, with the false connotations therein, where I’m often seen as diminutive, quiet, accommodating, agreeable, submissive, that I am not expected to think against the grain, to have my own theories on how I practice my art and my life.

I became a writer knowing I am entering a field (fine arts) where there are few faces like my own (and with many missing), a field where we are expected to succeed only when we pick up a violin or a cello in order to serve Euro-Centric “masterpieces.”

For so long, to be an Asian American “prodigy” in art was to be a fine-tuned instrument for Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven.

It is no surprise, then, that if you, as a BIPOC artist, dare to come up with your own ideas, to say “no” to what they shove/have been shoving down your throat for so long, you will be infantilized, seen as foolish, moronic, stupid, disobedient, uneducated, and untamed.

Because it means the instrument that was once in the service of their “work” has now begun to speak, has decided, despite being inconceivable to them, to sing its own songs.

I want you, I need you, to sing with me. I want to hear what you sound like when it’s just us, and you sound so much like yourself that I recognize you even in the darkest rooms, even when I recognize nothing else. And I know your name is “little brother” or “big sister,” or “light bean,” or “my-echo-returned-to-me-intact.” And I smile.

In the dark I smile.

Art has no rules—yes—but it does have methods, which vary for each individual. The following are some of my own methods and how I came to them.

I’m very happy ya’ll are so into figurative language! It’s my favorite literary device because it reveals a second IDEA behind an object or abstraction via comparison.

When done well, it creates what I call the “DNA of seeing.” That is, a strong metaphor “Greek for “to carry over”) can enact the autobiography of sight. For example, what does it say about a person who sees the stars in the night sky—as exit wounds?

What does it say about their history, their worldview, their relationship to beauty and violence? All this can be garnered in the metaphor itself—without context—when the comparative elements have strong multifaceted bonds.

How we see the world reveals who we are. And metaphors explicate that sight.

My personal feeling is that the strongest metaphors do not require context for clarity. However, this does not mean that weaker metaphors that DO require context are useless or wrong.

Weak metaphors use context to achieve CLARITY.

Strong metaphors use context to SUPPORT what’s already clear.

BOTH are viable in ANY literary text.

But for the sake of this deeper exploration into metaphors and their gradients, I will attempt to identify the latter.

I feel it is important for a writer to understand the STRENGTHS of the devices they use, even when WEAKER versions of said devices can achieve the same goal via different means.

Sometimes we want a life raft, sometimes we want a steam boat—but we should know which is which (for us).

My focus then, will be specifically the ornamental or overt metaphor. That is, metaphors that occur inside the line—as opposed to conceptual, thematic, extended metaphors, or Homeric simile (which is a whole different animal).

My thinking here begins with the (debated) theory that similes reside under metaphors. That is, (non-Homeric) similes, behave cognitively, like metaphors.

This DOES NOT mean that similes do not matter (far from it), as we’ll see later on, but that the compared elements, once read, begin to merge in the mind, resulting in a metaphoric OCCURRENCE via a simileac vehicle.

This thinking is not entirely my own, but one informed by my interest in Phenomenology. Founded by Edmund Husserl in the early 20th century and later expanded by Heidegger, Phenomenology is, in short, interested in how objects or phenomena are perceived in the mind, which renewed interest in subjectivity across Europe, as opposed to the Enlightenment’s quest for ultimate, finite truths.

By the time Husserl “discovered” this, however, Tibetan Buddhists scholars have already been practicing Phenomenology as something called Lojong, or “mind training,” for over half a millennia.

Whereas Husserl believes, in part, that a finite truth does exist but that the myopic nature of human perception hinders us from seeing all of it, Tibetan Lojong purports that no finite “truth” exists at all.

In Lojong, the world and its objects are pure perception. That is, a fly looks at a tree and sees, due to its compound eyes, hundreds of trees, while we see only one. For Buddhists, neither fly nor human is “correct” because a fixed truth is not present. Reality is only real according to one’s bodily medium.

I’m keenly interested in Lojong’s approach because it inheritably advocates for an anti-colonial gaze of the world. If objects in the real are not tenable, there is no reason they should be captured, conquered or pillaged.

In other words, we are in a “simulation” and because there is no true gain in acquiring something that is only an illusion, it is better to observe and learn from phenomena as guests passing through this world with respect to things—rather than to possess them.

The reason I bring this up is because Buddhist philosophy is the main influence of 8th century Chinese and 15th-17th century Japanese poetics, which fundamentally inform my understanding of metaphor.

While I appreciate Aristotle’s take on metaphor and rhetoric in his Poetics, particularly his thesis that strong metaphors move from species to genus, it is not a robust influence on my thinking.

After all, like sex and water, metaphors have been enjoyed by humans across the world long before Aristotle-- and evidently long after. In fact, Buddhist teachings, which widely employ metaphor and analogy, predates Aristotle by roughly 150 years.

Now, to better see how Buddhist Phenomenology informs the transformation of images into metaphor, let’s look at this poem by Moritake.

“The fallen blossom flies back to its branch. No, a butterfly.”

When considering (western-dominated) discourse surrounding analogues using “like” or “is”, is this image a metaphor or a simile?

It is technically neither. The construction of this poem does not employ metaphor or simile.

And yet, to my eye, a metaphor, although not present, does indeed HAPPEN.

What’s more, the poem, which is essentially a single metaphor, is complete.

No further context is needed for its clarity. If context is needed for a metaphor, then the metaphor is (IMO) weak—but that doesn’t mean the writing, as a whole, is bad. Weak metaphors and good context bring us home safe and sound.

Okay, so what is happening here?

By the time I read “butterfly,” my mind corrects the blossom so that the latter image retroactively changes/informs the former. We see the blossom float up, then re-see it as a butterfly. The metaphoric figuration is complete with or without “like” or “is.”

Buddhism explains this by saying that, although a text IS thought, it does not THINK. We, the readers, must think upon it. The text, then, only curates thinking.

Words, in this way, begin on the page but LIVE in the mind which, due to limited and subjective scope of human perception, shift seemingly fixed elements into something entirely new.

The key here is proximity. Similes provide buffers to mediate impact between two elements, but they do not rule over how images coincide upon reading. One the page, text is fossil; in the mind, text is life.

Nearly 5000 years after Maritake, Ezra Pound, via Fenolosa, reads Maritake’s poem and writes what becomes the seminal poem on Imagism in 1912, which was subsequently highly influential to early Modernists:

“The apparition of these faces in the crowd: Petals on a wet, black bough.”

Like Maritake, Pound’s poem technically has no metaphor or simile. However, he adds the vital colon after “crowd,” which arguably works as an “equal sign”, thereby implying metaphor. But the reason why he did not use “are” or “is” is telling.

Pound understood, like Maritake, that the metaphor would occur in the mind, regardless of connecting verbiage due to the images’ close proximity. We would come to know this as “association.”

Even if the colon was replaced by the word “like,” the transformation, though a bit slower, would still occur.

In fact, when I first studied Pound years ago, I had trouble recalling whether this poem was fashioned as a simile or not—mainly because the faces change to fully into blossoms each time I try to recall the poem.

Now, let’s look at a simile that, to me, metaphorizes in the same way as the examples above, in the line we saw before from Eduardo C. Corral:

“Jade moss on the tree intensifies, like applause.”

The origin/tenor image (moss) is connected to the transforming element (applause). This metaphor suggests, not an optical relationship, but a BEHAVIORAL one.

Both moss and applause are MASSES that accumulate via singularities: grains of moss and pairs of hands clapping to form a larger whole.

By comparing these two, Corral successfully suggests that moss grows at the RATE of applause, creating a masterful time lapse effect. Applause speeds up the moss growth, connoting rejuvenation, joy and refreshment. That something as mundane as moss deserves, even earns, jubilance, also offers a potent statement of alterity, that the smallest flourishing deserves celebration, which in turn suggests a subtle yet powerful political critique of hegemony.

The poet, through the metaphor, has recalibrated the traditional modes of value placed on the object (moss).

And no other context is needed for that.

You might disagree, but when I read Corral’s line, I don’t SEE an audience clapping BESIDE the moss. I see moss growing quickly to the sound of clapping. Although the simile is employed, the fusion of both elements completes the action in my mind’s eye.

Like Maritake and Pound, metaphor has OCCURRED here—but without “metaphor”.

HOWEVER, the simile is still VITAL. Why?

Because the transforming element is abstract (applause) and looks nothing like moss. We don’t want moss to BE applause, we want the nature of applause to inform, imbue, moss.

The line, I feel, would be quite poor if it was formed sans simile:

“Jade moss is applause on the tree.”

The “is” forces transposition, which is here akin to slamming two things together without mediation. We also lose the comparison of behavior, and are asked to see that moss BECOME applause, which doesn’t have the same meaning as the original.

So, although the simile fuses into metaphor (via association) in the mind, such a metaphor would NOT have been possible without the simile.

Similes matter greatly—as tools towards metaphor. Why?

Because (thank god) our minds are free to roam.

To summarize, one of the central strategies (and, to an extent, purposes) of the Japanese Haiku is to juxtapose two elements to test their synergy. This impulse is grounded in Shinto and Buddhist concepts of impermanence and structural malleability. That is, all things, even ideas and images, are subject to constant change—and such change is the most pervasive nature of perception.

The Haiku then becomes the perfect medium to test such changes. This principle is of central importance to me because it is rooted in non-dualistic (or non-binary) thinking.

The poem becomes the theatre in which fixed elements can be transformed, their borders subject to being dissolved, shifting towards something entirely new—to “create”, which is the Greek root to the word “poet.” The metaphor, then, is more like a chemical, whose elements (like hydrogen and oxygen), placed side by side, becomes water.

In this way, Buddhism’s influence on my work and, specifically, my use and understanding of metaphor, is a foundational QUEER praxis for alterity.

The reason why I emphasize the malleability of simile’s impact is that, although syntax and diction can aide a metaphor towards its more luminous embodiment, the ultimate key to its success is you, the observer.

YOU have look deeply and find lasting relationships between things in a disparate world.

In this sense, the practice of metaphor is also, I believe, the practice of compassion. How do I study a thing so that I might add to its life by introducing it to something else?

At its best, the metaphor is what we, as a species, have always done, at OUR best: which is to point at something or someone so different from us, so far from our own origins and say, “Yes, there IS a bond between us. And if I work long enough, hard enough, I can prove it to you—with this thing called language, this thing that weighs nothing but means everything to me.”

In the end, it is less about how you set up your metaphors (you will eventually find a way that suits it and you) but more about how you recognize your world. THAT is not easy to teach—it comes with patient practice, with a committed wonder for a world that at times might be too painful to look at. But you must and you should.

Good metaphors, in the end, come from writers who are committed to looking beyond what is already there, towards another possibility.

This calls that you see your life and your work as inexhaustible sites of discovery, and that you tend to them with care.

That’s it. That’s the true secret to a strong metaphor: care.

Lastly, I want to recommend the work of BIPOC poet and theorist, Thylias Moss, who discovered the Limited Fork Theory, a theory which suggests that the mind engages with the world, and especially with ideas, including text and art, the way the tines of a fork engage with a plate of food.

That is, only so much can be held on the work/mind with each attempt to consume, and that no “work” can be possessed in its entirety, which I find happily congruent with Lojong.

What a wonderful anti-imperialist and forgiving way to engage with our planet and its phenomena. Thank you, Mrs. Moss!

And thank YOU for sticking around through my little seminar.

I hope this has been helpful. Again, this is just my 2(5) cents! Now I’m going to sleep for four days.

In the meantime, me-ta-phors be with you.
