This isn't a metaphor.
Even when I was little,
"Certain textures, like if they look like bugs could be in them, creep me out."
It's not like it's a crippling fear,
So I guess it's not really a phobia.
I can look at honeycomb
or hole-y wood and concrete
without running away screaming--
But it makes me all itchy,
Then it lets butterflies free in my stomach.
Nobody ever gets what I mean when I try to explain.
It's a real thing.
And the sight of lotus pods makes me sick.
(Especially lotus pods photoshopped into people's skin.)
