Answer:
It provides a hopeful image that suggests that Kahlo was not restrained by her condition.
Explanation:
From the attached image, we can understand that Kahlo was injured and broke her spine in several places and despite several surgeries, she would live with pain for the rest of her life and would require a corset to hold her spine in place.
The excerpt from the poem says,
<em>"who painted herself a present</em>
<em>wildflowers entwining the plastic corset</em>
<em>her spine resides in, that flaming pillar"</em>
We can see that the imagery depicts a hopeful image that Kahlo is not restrained or held back by her condition because she "painted herself a present" and the line about wildflowers shows that while the situation is an unplanned one, she still has hope as she describes her spine as a "flaming pillar".
A wildflower is a flower that grows in the wild that was not planted by anyone and it symbolizes the forced condition of wearing the corset

I found this question online; it refers to the poem "Bag of Bones" by Dunya Mikhail.
<u>The poem's theme concerns the death of many as well as the death of one. </u>One death will bring an impact with it - in the poem, it is the mother who lost her son. When a mass grave was dug up, she was able to find his remains, which brought back the memories of when he was alive as well as the feeling of loss and injustice - his death was the result of a dictatorship.
However, many more mothers are still there, at the grave, looking for their children. That one mother's tragedy is the same tragedy of many others. <u>What the dictator has done is ruin several individual lives which, when put together, results in a collective tragedy for millions.</u>
Answer:
“[Her children’s] absence was a sort of relief, though she did not admit this, even to herself. It seemed to free her of a responsibility which she had blindly assumed and for which Fate had not fitted her.”
