Answer:

Explanation:

First of all, I think it would do justice to me giving a very short explanation on what a Metaphor is.

A metaphor is a figure of speech that uses a word, often times a phrase, to refer or talk about a word. It states a direct similarity between a word or phrase being used, and the word or phrase being described without using the words "as" or "like."

That being said, I will pick out two of the metaphors in the poem.

1) "my stomach was a melon split wide inside my skin."

2) "I felt the life sliding out of me."

Why did priests use the calendar?
natka813 [3]

"See Aztec Empire. The Aztecs used two different calendar systems, one with a cycle lasting 260 days and the other with a 365-day cycle. The 260-day calendar cycle, known as the tonalpohualli (counting of the days), was a sacred calendar used mainly by priests to predict the future. "

There were Daykeepers that kept track of the days. I hope this helped.
