WARNING: This is a metaphorical and autobiographical account of a horrible, life-threatening experience with queerphobia and religious bigotry. If you have emotional difficulty dealing with these topics -- which is completely understandable -- don't continue.

You are a moth, living in moth society. Your life consists of visiting the fields, picking mushrooms, and attending moth church with your very observant family. Your fields are occasionally visited by butterflies.

When you see the butterflies and witness their glorious colors, it makes you think about yourself. Are you really as colorless as the other moths?

This is an incredibly personal bitsy. A link is included to a more direct telling of the same story.

CW: Queerphobia, religious bigotry, some flashing imagery.
