Simile is a figure of speech in which two things are compared. It uses words such as <em>like </em>and <em>as</em>. The simile in the example sentence is the phrase "you swooned like an old lady."
A metaphor is a direct comparison. For example, "you are an old lady." A paradox is a statement which contradicts itself. For instance, "false truth." Finally, personification is the attribution of human characteristics to something that is not human, or the personification of an abstract human feature. For example, "the bear spoke to the young girl."
The theme is the importance of Machines in our life. Machines make many things easier and facilitate the work of the humans.
In the beginning, the poet informs about how the machines are produced and what kind of treatment they need. Afterwards, in the second and third stanzas, the machines explain how they can serve humanity. All the work what was done by the humans earlier is taken up by the machines at present. They pull, haul, push, lift, drive, print, plough, weave, heat, light, run, race, swim, fly, and dive. They can also see, hear, count, read and write like human beings. Even though machines are useful, they can also lead to big disasters, if they aren’t used in the right way. They have no emotions or feeling for anyone. In the last stanza, the dream of the “perfect machinery” suddenly seems to fade away. Machines aren’t miraculous creations. They are nothing more than the creations of the human brain.
