Pretty simple.
Do not use metaphors ever!

Express all your impressions and feelings in the most honest and literal way possible.
What we call a metaphor is nothing but an impression portrayed to someone who didn't ever have it.

Unironically read rap lyrics. Start with Kanye, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne. You are stuck in the same mode of thought you always are.
