Simile: A figure of speech comparing two unlike things using like or as. For example, “like I’m coming down with something,”
Metaphor: A figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. “Chickenpox of the soul,” “Mumps of the psyche,” and “Mumps of the spirit.” He illustrates the physical and mental changes that occur during adolescence using these metaphors.
Oxymoron: A figure of speech that combines contradictory words with opposing meanings. In “beautiful complexity,” the poet uses an oxymoron, and “two” metaphorically refers to both the real and imaginative selves of the poet.
