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."
