Dont Upset The Apple Cart

Meaning

To cause upset - to create a difficulty.

Origin

This allusory phrase is first recorded by Jeremy Belknap in The History of New Hampshire, 1788:

"Adams had almost overset the apple-cart by intruding an amendment of his own fabrication on the morning of the day of ratification" [of the Constitution].

dont upset the apple cart
business is bad breaks
my heart..i am the only
one waiting for customers
on my part the others
have closed shop.
on the rampart
man can live
without culture
but not without art
deleted doomed
wingless memories
shot apart sometimes
being dumb is better
than being smart
keeper of an orchard
what a bogart
