“So if you want it right now, make him show you how
Express what he’s got, oh baby ready or not
Express yourself”
Madonna
The other day I got to thinking about the phrase: “Express yourself”. In particular, the different meanings of the word “express”.
For example, there’s emotional expressions (conveying a thought or feeling), expressing breast milk (squeezing out a liquid), express mail or the express bus (sending something faster than the usual method).
When I feel the need to express myself now I can’t help but picture my emotions coming out of me like a liquid under pressure at a faster than normal rate.
Excuse me while I express myself.
