did you lend your pen?? we are all dying to know.
I feel like it's not, because google says that metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. It may be if something else was added to the sentence. But since there isn't anything else to it, it isn't because it does not match the description of a metaphor.
The correct answer is
Protagonist
Noun(person place or thing) - new york
Adjective(describing word) - delicious
