I think the poem in question is actually "Ashes of Life" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.

If your question pertains to the subject of the poem as a whole, I believe the correct answer to your question is B. metaphor.

Metaphor means that a thing is not to be regarded in its literal sense, but as representative of something else. In this case, there are no ashes in the poem. But they are a metaphor of what's left of her life now that her beloved has abandoned her. We can also take this as an example of imagery, suggesting that she was burning with love, and now only ashes have remained.

However, if you take a closer look at some of the lines, such as "<span>Love has gone and left me", it is a personification - giving human attributes to animals, abstract notions, or non-living things.</span>

Read the following vocabulary word in context from Act I as found on the page indicated. You may need to read some text before a
likoan [24]
disrespectfulness

In the play the word is used when Keller says, "You be quiet! I’m badgered enough here by females without your impudence." The first trick to identifying a word's definition using context clues is to decide if the word is used in a positive way or a negative way. After reading Keller's statement, we can tell he is frustrated and annoyed, so he is not going to be talking in a positive way. This eliminates the first two options immediately. Disrespectfulness is your answer.
