National Metaphor Day Prints

"National Metaphor Day by the looks of it."

"Nation-building never works."

"Why is there so much emphasis put on our stupid race?" "I think people are more interested in it as a metaphor than as an actual race." "Slow and steady wins the race, that sort of thing." "That would explain why I always lose..." "Bartender, another please." "Maybe you should slow down." "You never learn do you?"

"I think before we begin to address me, we need to talk about the clown in the room."

"See what you get for thinking outside the fishbowl!"

'Life is like a trough, Mr. Fisk. How much slop you get out of it depends on how much slop you put into it.'

"Honestly, I thought you were a metaphor."

"Remorse sits in my stomach like a piece of stale bread. How does that sound?"

Never write a sonnet on an empty stomach

'Are we watching business news or sports news?'

'I've discovered you have feet of clay.'

"Two roads diverged in a wood and I didn't know which one to cross."

"I'm the bluebird of low expectations."

'Stick and Carrot Business Incentive Consultants.'

'Oh man, he just nailed that triple entendre... that all but guarantees him a medal.'

Some moss pounces on a rolling stone.

'So push has come to shove...'

Life Remaining Progress Bar

"It's National Poetry Month, Marion, and by God we're gonna read some poetry."

The Nature Writer Writer.

'This is the eight hundred and sixty-seventh day of my captivity - How about you?'

"In the land of toast the butter is spread very thin."

'I'm just not keen.'

'True, I win, right.'

"Poetry would be way more accessible if they just said what they meant."

"Well, it looks like the shit finally hit the fan. So, who wants to lick the blades?"

Metaphors.

"There you are!"

"Look, I got a good grade because I worked hard. It's like riding a bike...stay in your seat, keep moving forward and you'll reach your goal. Unless you hit a lipstick case dropped in the middle of the road."
