"As well as she could,for she was very loath
To signify how she felt,she kept very still,
But soon her heart cracked loud as a coffee mill
And her brain swung like a comet in the dark
And her tongue raced like a squirrel in the park."
I think she is speaking about the tongue here.Isn't she?
The tongue = The men's feelings?
I mean where does the "she" emerge from in this last part???

the brain doesnt doesnt swing,the heart doesnt rly crack and the tongue doesnt rly race..
does that make these sentences personifications? even if there is like and/or as after it?
what i mean is..can a sentence be two things?

im such a noobie kid. for me personification is "the sun woke up"...and the sun is like the girl who woke up..the author just named her "the sun"..but she's not rly the sun.. is that a personification?i have the feeling that doesnt even exist  Yes, that's a personification! Personification is giving objects human characteristics. oh!!so the brain that burned is a personification?since the brain doesnt burn..right? |
