Iron Feng




Behold the glorious harmony in this student’s presentation. Above, we have the iron hearth, representing the heart of the home, rendered in miniature. Below, the giant spoon, representing the individual. Note how the utensil can also be used as a dagger, ready to strike at the black heart of anyone who trespasses upon the homely scene. In the center, framed by the black, lies the broccoli, facing east and west, in an oval bowl.

See how the stove looms forbiddingly above the dish, to remind the diner of those who toiled to bring him such riches.

Surely this student will soon be a Feng Shui master, ready to bring peace and harmony and severe foreboding to your home.
