"Never smile at a crocodile and never give Messi that much space"



Simile, hyperbole, metaphor, idiom: Ray Hudson should be mandatory on all ‘creative writing’ courses.

Messi scored the winner against Real Madrid last Sunday and Ray’s celebration was epic.

"The menacing man arrives and sinks his flaming spear into the hearts of Real Madrid ……………..born in the crossfire hurricane, and he is jumping jack flash right here.............. Messi, you could drop a Tarantula into his shorts and he'd still be cool………………… As cool as the seeds inside of a cucumber".

Earlier he described Messi ‘s finish as “cleaner than Neutrogena” and “ wonderful control. He tattoos the ball to his feet.”

Mind you it’s hard to beat some of the praise he has previously showered on Messi, here are a few more:

“Defenders try to follow him on Facebook and he comes out on Twitter.”
“He burgulates the defence. He violates the intrusion. And in football, it’s legal!”
“Messi needs help like a shark needs a dentist”

Playing Poetry

I nearly missed it. Elaine asked me to send her this link as an example for her students of poetry in everyday life. And sure enough, it is poetry in everyday life except it's not exactly everyday life, as you'll see.

Ray Hudson who knows a thing or two about hyperbole, inspired by Messi's brilliance, surpasses his previous best with this hilarious outburst last night.
