I once composed a poem about rubber trees continuing to exist in the form of the soles of my sneakers.
I lost it, but it was very grandiose in its prose, very evocatively-so, and perhaps I poured it on much too thick to just glorify a pair of basketball shoes.
Hopefully, I've learned from that experience not to ......... what's that one word for making scenarios grander than they actually are?
"you are... (exaggerating) this whole deal" - synonym to this one, I think -
