In the poem, the following figurative languages are used:
Blue as blood - simile
Protection like acid - simile
I wear him like a cloak - simile
The first one talks about the tattoo on the father's wrist. This idealizes that the tattoos are part of the father's body and distracting like a vein (veins appear bluish from the outside)
The second one is an abutment; protection is compared to acid, which is a substance that destroys, not protects. This implies that the efforts of the father in protecting the child feel like it is eating away (like acid).
The third one describes feelings of the speaker under the father's protection; The speaker sweats under the weight of being wrapped around instead of getting comfortable and relieved.

He shows that Leiningen is a defensive minded strategist willing to do all in his power to protect his plantation from the invading ants.
Explanation:
'Leiningen And The Ants' is the story of a coffee plantation owner called Leiningen who upon hearing that an army of invading ants was coming to invade and destroy his coffee plantation, refused to chicken out and run, but rather chose to employ several defence mechanisms to defend his investment in the plantation.
The water filled ditch (also called Moats) around the plantation was the first line of defense employed by Leiningen to ward off the ants.
The ditch which was built 12 feet across the plantation was filled with water to act as a barrier to the ants reaching the plantation.
The ants, however, used their bodies to construct a bridge over the ditch on which they were able to invade the plantation
