Unlike Audrey, Wash didn't know that black kids were about to offer themselves up for arrest. He passed that spring doing what h

e'd done for the past six or seven years - hanging out in the woods with friends. He wasn't even going to school very often, much less to mass meetings. When he found out about the marches, he thought the students were crazy. "It was hard to come to grips with," he said. "We knew [the police] to be torturers, murderers . . . , and the idea of voluntarily submitting yourself to be taken away with them was just to us - we couldn't . . . "

Read the following excerpt from a performance review.
kap26 [50]

Answer: To show that it is a metaphor and not literal

Explanation:

''Talk the hind legs of a donkey'' is having a meaning ''making a donkey sit down on its rear end'' which is not something that donkeys do naturally. It is used when we are describing a person who is talking to much. This phrase has its origins in Ireland.

In this case, the author is considering that person can talk much about her tales.
