The Ass... What a lowly, humble creature. I find it so facinating that such a vast majority of stories have used the ass as their go-to creature. So, what is it, then? What is the magical, hidden parallel between donkey and moral? So many stories to have used this animal, and I am truely perplexed as to why. I mean come on... Why is Eor a donkey? Coinsidence? Nahh.
Why not a dog, or a monkey or a llama?? I can't convince myself that the ancient story writers/tellers so happend to borrow the ass from other stories because they couldn't conjure up an animal themselves. What am I missing?
Someone please get Eor some Zoloft.
