Metaphors on Vision

Working as an artist myself both within print media as well as digital...I'm often floored by the way that someone paints a picture within whatever medium and a lot of that is based on people's influences rather its film, music, art, theater, etc and that's a beautiful thing...its the tapestry of art itself. I used to frequent poetry slams as a performer and metaphors are a huge part of the poetic world so when I started reading this my mind started relating the cinematic experience both in front of and behind the camera to how natural it is for people to focus in on something and relate it to something completely alien to the outside world yet everyone can understand what the meaning of it all is...that's the nature of metaphors...its a shame that people don't open their eyes enough to see them.
