Writer's Block The maroon door squeaks in protest. The new moon crawls away from the broken windowpanes. Timid clouds steal the lunar light. The last candle is about to kiss the night goodbye. He sips black coffee from a heavy mug. His fountain pen, with its chewed end, rests. 2 Which lines from the poem contain an example of personification? A. the last candle / is about to kiss B. the fountain pen / with its chewed end C. from the broken / windowpanes

Urprettybabygirl15:

B

@sailor HELP ME AKAZA

Sailor:

Ok I'd say that it's the first option because candles can't literally kiss things.

martai:

TRUE

martai:

its either b or c

Sailor:

Well, personification is when a inanimate object is given human characteristics. Can humans be broken like a window pane? Can humans be chewed like the end of a pen?

martai:

no

Sailor:

So it's neither B or C, right?

martai:
