What are the literacy devices in this peom ? The transformation is complete. My eyes Are microscopes and cathode X-ray tubes In one, so I can see bacteria, Your underwear, and even through to bones. My hands are hypodermic needles, touch Turned into blood: I need to know your salts And chemistries, a kind of intimacy That won’t bear pondering. It’s more than love, More weird than ESP–my mouth, for instance, So small and sharp, a dry computer chip That never gets to kiss or taste or tell A brief truth like “You’re beautiful,” or worse, “You’re crying just like me; you are alive.”

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
