Homogeneous Chroma House
a: Writing with concrete language ~
b: building a brick house
What: "If writing with concrete language is like building a brick house, writing with a consistent diction is like building with a con-sistent color scheme. The first two little pigs would surely have taken to laughing at their brother if he had built his house with multi-colored bricks. Even one yellow brick in a house of red would stand out and make the house look awkward."

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.
