Moonshine 2; Absinthe Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
Description
This piece is composed of many different symbolic components.
Of the drink: The monkey on my back, the elephant in the room. Pink elephants on Parade. Bathtub moonshine. Flying monkeys. Absinthe. Green Fairies.
Not very well known fact, at least in North America, is that (not in North America) where the marula trees grow, and lets its fruit fall, elephants, vervets, and many other animals gather to eat the fermented fruits and get drunk off them.
It's a mixed set of symbols. Most of us see a fun, colourful, idyllic night out, but people who have problems with drinking would see it in a different way.
