Night climbed the horizon like a cake on the prowl; Its breath was the wind that began to howl, The piercing stars were its ravenous eyes, Eclipsing the light to reveal its guide. How does the poet use personification?

Answer 1

The poet uses personification by assigning human attributes or characteristics to the concept of night. Night is personified as a living entity that climbs and prowls, breathes, and has eyes that are ravenous.
