Answer: personification and enjambment
Personification refers to a rhetorical device in which the author gives human characteristics to nonhuman entities, such as animals, objects, natural phenomena or abstract concepts. In this case, the author uses personification when she says: "my skin has betrayed me."
Enjambment refers to the incomplete syntax at the end of a sentence. This means that the meaning of a sentence runs from one poetic line to the next, without terminal punctuation. The author uses enjambment in this excerpt, as the meaning of the sentences run from one line to the next.
