Many a singer far better than this absurd fop had been driven amid execration and abuse from the platform." Is the sentence that really shows mockery the best. While the author was praising him for what he was doing in the beginning it ends with such a mocking tone it changes the way you look at the rest of the reading.

Identify and evaluate the imagery and figurative language used in the poem “Tattoo” by Gregg Shapiro and how it relates to the m
Savatey [412]
In the poem, the following figurative languages are used:

Blue as blood - simile
Protection like acid - simile
I wear him like a cloak - simile

The first one talks about the tattoo on the father's wrist. This idealizes that the tattoos are part of the father's body and distracting like a vein (veins appear bluish from the outside)
The second one is an abutment; protection is compared to acid, which is a substance that destroys, not protects. This implies that the efforts of the father in protecting the child feel like it is eating away (like acid).
The third one describes feelings of the speaker under the father's protection; The speaker sweats under the weight of being wrapped around instead of getting comfortable and relieved.

Hope this answer helps.

How might a story written in a third-person limited point of view impact the reader?
PtichkaEL [24]
When a story is written in third person point of view, it may cut off some of the personal feelings you might get if you were reading the story in first person, or even second person point of view. The thing is, first person is a lot more personal than third person. Third person is kind of like just telling you the story. (Although it is not narrative)
