A poetic device used to draw comparison, or illustrate a parallel relationship between two different subjects. More or less the same as a
simile, except omitting the word "like;" as in the following example- METAPHOR- Life is
a box of chocolates./SIMILE-
Life is like a box of chocolates. Confusion over these two techniques has resulted in untold disasters throughout the history of language.
Example:
The guy in
the cowboy hat said, "Life is a metaphor for itself," but he's
bi-polar and thinks he's Jesus, so don't pay no attention to him.
