Maggie, no problem about having been done bewfore, so has eating, Mozart and intercourse, but no reason to stop trying to improve on all three, LOL!
Immediately we do not merely see eating apples, but a plastic bag shaped by two prominent round speheres.
The brain looks that up in its analog library and "scrotum with testicles" or "breasts in a blouse" come to mind. But them we look to confirm but it is not that. Its actually apples in a plastic bag.
We have to go through unlikely possibililities, so as not to be trcked by a marauder in disguise. We look at a bag like this with instincts honed for millions of years and plastics were not even a twinkle in man's mind in all that time. So we use the archaic skills we have to decipher what's before us.
Get back to our evolution: we're the greaterst trickers and sly deceivers. That's how we hunt, seduce and trick a potential prey, competitor or mate to be where we can overcome it.
If we didint think of alternatives, we would dismiss the waiting lioness shoulders in the grass as the boulder it is mimicking and that branch of the human DNA chain would be ended. Those who could think of hte alternate possibilities get to survive and have offspring.
so your apples in pplastic bags will conjure up in folks minds many different possiblities. Art that does thaat, which is more open ended, is in my opinion, more interesting, fascinating and worthwhile.
So, bless you! I have done it again. My wife says I tend to sexualize everything. But then it is what we are really asupposed to do.
That, after all is the untlimate purpose of putting butter on one's bread!
