      Could you explain your metaphor please? I understand the first idiom, but can’t put it together in a way that makes sense to me. Would you mind ‘plainly’ stating what you’re implying?.. cause I’m at a bit of a loss

      It may be that I’m not so literarily keen; but your comment seems… idiosyncratic? Idk, I’m probs just uninformed. Please help
