One of my favorite Fun-A-Days from this year. An amusing phrase that I passed by on tumblr. Couldn't really, say, "illustrate" what I saw in it. Words and typography seem just colorless and mass-less, but at the same time colorful and heavy. So I went with nothingness on paper. But it still packs a punch, and in fact, it wasn't on the wall during the show because of its central F-bomb.

From Fun-A-Day. Egyptian Licorice. Makes a nice tea.

Fable

The mountain and the squirrel
Had a quarrel;
And the former called the latter "Little Prig."
Bun replied,
"You are doubtless very big;
But all sorts of things and weather
Must be taken in together
To make up a year
And a sphere.
And I think it's no disgrace
To occupy my place.
If I'm not so large as you,
You are not so small as I,
And not half so spry.
I'll not deny you make
A very pretty squirrel track;
Talents differ: all is well and wisely put;
If I cannot carry forests on my back,
Neither can you crack a nut." 

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
