Pushed away: Olives (Green) (II)

Bring that up around me and I'll make you sorry you did.

It keeps to the concrete and handles anything sacred by belittling it, aiming the mockery less at the idea than at the people who hold it, which is effective at ensuring the subject stops coming up in its vicinity. Rejection registered before memory and continued afterwards left it with a grievance too old to name, and derision is the version of that grievance which can be performed in company. What it asks for is to sit through one conversation on the subject without supplying the joke.

The Archetypal Form

It echoes Loki at the feast, going along the benches one by one with something true and unbearable to say to each god in turn, until the hall had nothing left to celebrate. The form implies a task: to notice who is actually being addressed.
