It's Dirty
a: My heart ~
b: a stained dirty carpet
What: This is what's it's like. After years of neglect and abuse, this is what I'm left with. A once nice clean clear and nice smelling carpet to lay down on and watch TV is not a dirty crusted irreversible damaged fixture. There must be a way to clean it up or possibly replace it, my heart that is damaged.

Many Animals In There......
a: My heart ~
b: a zoo
What: "For each feeling, the bold, graphic artwork creates an animal out of heart shapes, from "eager as a beaver" to "angry as a bear" to "thoughtful as an owl." An accessible and beautiful debut, My Heart Is Like a Zoo is everything a classic picture book should be: honest, sincere, and speaking directly to even the very youngest child."

I Can See For Miles.....
a: My heart ~
b: the skyline
What: "Just to realize that my heart is like the skyline - something I let shine for others to see, but at the end of the night, when the sun starts to rise and the wounds begin to heal, it opens up, bright and brilliant again, ready for another night, ready for all that's yet to come."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
