Yeah D sounds correct to me

crispyrat · Answer

hmm i'm not so sure
Ok so we can immediately cross off B and C because they are both present. C being this line "Is moving its slow thighs" and simile being A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun" comparing the things gaze to a bottomless pit.

Now onto D is imaginary fancy description essentially which this things includes, in" A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun" and "Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds"

So that leaves us with A as there is no rhyme scheme and the words don't correlate in a specific pattern.

"Part of the figurative language in a literary work, whereby the author uses vivid images to describe a phenomenon" Quote from Google on "Imagery definition"
