and bites

I am discovering (inventing?) that not only characters and plot need antagonism, pressure, dilemma, and sub-text, but so do metaphors. This gives them life and reality: we see ourselves and our wrestling with our ways. What is the whole metaphor? It is certainly more than the pretty little thing we can mold with our hand. It is alive, and bites.
