Many thanks to Jason Jordan, I have a new flash piece of parable out today at decomP magazine, “The Tree and the Worktable.”
I have a rule that if something is ever stuck in your head, you should probably just write it. This began as a little moral argument I was having in my head, walking across town. And I had this self-rejoinder, well, as you all know from the famous parable about uh … well uh …. and it felt like something about moral relativism that we should have in the vocabulary as shorthand, but I didn’t know what I was reaching for. So I sat down and wrote one.
