It's one of the laziest metaphors. And one I dislike the most.See, lots of things have hidden meanings and layers, right?And, like, onions have layers too, you know?So, "it was layered like an onion".So if I'm seeking to explain something deep and interesting and profound.Maybe, I should do that thing some justice.This world contains many wonders, not all of which are hiddenThough there is of course delight in finding secrets once forbiddenWhen you enter a new city you enter into new sights and sounds, Ithits you like a blast, your senses are overloaded, poundedWelcome to the surface. To first impressions.If this place is a teacher you're learning your first lessonsTake a trip on the transport give an ode to each roadThe steps taken each day by those who call the city their abodeThen take a step down take a step in take another step deeperGoing to the places where this new place happens to keeps theThings it puts on show, the history and attractionsSplit the city into pieces and learn all its factionsBut take a walk down any street in any city you will witnessPeople practising their passion, running a local businessLet's go inner again, lets meet the people insideof the buildings, those residents that resideIn the city, and the city dwells in their personalityAnd then each person goes deeper than you will likely ever seeThen you meet those you call family, those you call friendsAnd you uncover more layers and you hope it never endsDo you see now? Why I dislike the onion analogy so much?See, each layer of an onion is just more onion.The true hidden layers, the ones worth exploring?They are so much more than that. So much more.Don't do injustice to reality with lazy metaphors.Instead, mirror it, and sink that next layer deeper.***https://harryisapoet.blogspot.com/2017/11/hidden-layers.html
