What poem is this? I need to know to answer.
B. Simile
Simile compares two unlike objects using words such as "like" or "as." It's often confused with metaphor, which does not use "like" or "as."

It was the beginning of a nightmare for Elie.Elie's first impression upon coming to Auschwitz, is that it was better that Birkenau. He says that he saw two story cement buildings instead of wood barracks, and there was even a couple of small gardens. Once of the train, he realizes just how wrong he was. His mother and sister is taken away from him and his father, never to be seen again. Elie is happy that he and his father get to stay together, but he has no idea how this is going to change him forever. The first night they are there, they see a big fire and the German officers throwing babies into it. This act will haunt Elie the rest of this life. This is the first point where Elie begins to become angry with God. While he is at Auschwitz, Elie loses all his faith in God, by the horrible things he witnesses. The image of fire, now become a symbol of the darkness in Elie. "All that was left of me was a shape that resembled me. My soul had been invaded and devoured-by a black flame", this quote shows us that there is a darkness in Elie now. The atrocities of what is happening to him, have forced the young boy to face things no one should ever have to face.
