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

<h2>Bullying!!!</h2>

When someone was bullying me I felt like I'm not important and I started hating my self because they always bullied me on my looks and my hair and the words they say really hurt my feelings because they might feel like they are not doing nothing to you but deep down they know the pain and how it feels like to get bullied but they still continue on what they do. My feeling are hurt when I'm getting bullied and when other people are getting but it just pain to see them get bullied but your just standing there worrying about how they will treat you after you stand up to the person. Bullying is just something you should take like a joke because it can lead to major depression, suicide ,and shooting up schools so if I were you I would stop bullying now. (I was bullied and I had depression and to this day I still do because I'm still getting bully).If this is true to you.
