the tongue and the teeth

The tongue and the teeth reside under one roof. Despite their differences they can’t do without each other. If there are disagreements all things in the house suffer.

The parables that the Nigerians tell each other are amazing. This is one I encountered recently. I think my affinity to literalism and scientific explication are gone forever.

the rooster in pepe soup
