If anyone is as confused by the title as I was: googling "Bradbury Pomegranate" pulled up an interview[1] in which he explains the metaphor in the context of his writing:
Weller: “Do you ever marvel at how much you’ve created?” (Bradbury has published close to 600 short stories, over 30 books and numerous poems, essays, and plays.)
Bradbury: “The simple fact is this: I’m a pomegranate. I’m a very big pomegranate that exploded and my seeds are all over the place. So there are 10,000 seeds of me all over the place. I am glad that I exploded and that I took root to become a pomegranate.”
