Metaphorty

any analogous prose or artistic expression addressing reparations relative to Black Americans.
I wrote this Metaphorty which is also a Metashorty, poem to recite on MLK Day:

Pour our libations

We have travelled four hundred five annuals
we are tired and parched
We have protested and cried
Seen our kind die
We have sweated and bled
Seeded and tread
Built walls and streets all over this land

Risen from ashes

Revived and Rebuilt

Voted, paid taxes
All while being strung toe tagged and called ratchet yet
We have demonstrated excellence in every way
In every arena
On every stage
We are beyond frustration

The next mode is rage

Cryptic metaphor

A line made famous by flash animation veteran, Egoraptor, in his spoof of the game Metal Gear Solid, "Metal Gear Awesome". This is uttered aloud, by Vulcan Raven, referring to the fact that Snakes have no arms, and since Revolver Ocelot gets his arm cut off, it symbolses that he is going to be the next snake, making a cryptic metaphor. This exclamation can also be used by standing silently behind a complete stranger and pointing at them, and waiting for them to turn around, and when they do, shouting "CRYPTIC METAPHOR." And walking away without further comment.
1. Snake: Oh, gee whiz, I hope a tank isn't gonna totally come outta nowhere and OWN me.

*tank shoots snake*

Snake: YOU KNOW... SERIOUSLY... I'M GETTING A LITTLE FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!

Meryl: Hey, Snake, a tank is gonna totally...

Snake: SHUT UP!!

Raven: CRYPTIC METAPHOR.

Snake: Do you seriously think this is fucking fair?

Raven: ...Just throw grenades at me.

Snake: Oh.

*explosion*

Snake: Awsum!

Raven *laughs* I gave him more than a raven could hunt for in the night.

Ocelot: What?!

Raven: The snake prowls feircely, but cannot scratch his back, for as the sioux people are aware of, snakes have no arms with which to scratch their back.

Ocelot: ...Shut up.

Raven: The Raven on my head thirsts for his blood!

Raven's tattoo: DAMN RIGHT, NIGGA, mm-MM!!

2. Mungo: So what are you doing this weekend?

Zodiac: CRYPTIC METAPHOR!!!

Mungo: Cheapass! You did that last week!

metaphorgasm

What happens when someone overreacts, gushingly, to an overanalytical comment about literature.
The English teacher had a metaphorgasm when the student compared the clouds in the poem to femininity and the sun in the poem to masculinity.

metaphor

A comparison between two unrelated things; does NOT use the words "like" or "as."
Note to all of the people out there who only think they understand grammar:
A comparison using "like" or "as" (definition #2) is a SIMILE.
A sentence used to express the relationship of words (definition #3) is an ANALOGY.

"America is a melting pot" is a metaphor.
"Life is like a box of chocolates" is a simile.
"Pink is to red as gray is to black" is an analogy.

Metaphorically Speaking

Identical to " Figuratively Speaking"
Simply it means, when you say something which is not really true or realistic but you use it for expressing the intense of the circumstance. Obviously it is not similar to " Literally" or " Literally speaking". Literally means that is exactly true but metaphorically is when it's not true is just use to express the intense. Check the example to figure it out properly.
"He almost got me heart attack?" He said

" Really?" Rez asked

"Metaphorically speaking of course"
