Here's my metaphor for DMSI B, so far.
It's like DMSI is an icebreaker barge, and I'm taking it on an expedition beyond the North Pole because we heard there is a mythical land of lush warmth and greenery (this is a metaphor for women's warmth which is also mythical at this point) far beyond the frozen ocean. This icebreaker is smashing through icebergs at grueling pace as the wind howls and grows more frigid. I'm smoking my pipe on the bridge wondering what in the cockneye am I doing, better retire to my captains quarters for some rest and heavy boozing. Either this trip is going to get us all killed, or we'll break through to the mythical land beyond the poles. Maybe I should just turn this barge around right now and head for the tropics. Then again, how many icebreaker barges do you see in the tropics?
Hope you enjoyed my metaphor for the futility of DMSI against female frigidity and unpleasantness.
It's inspired partly and in no small part by a book called The Smoky God, about a man and son who purportedly did travel beyond the poles and found something better than anything I could write.
