You fit into me


You fit into me

A fish hook
An open eye.

In this poem, the author uses different conceptions of the word "eye" and "hook", meaning to a human eye and a fishing hook.

5.- What symbols, images or figures of speech are used? What is the relationship between them?


The poem is basically a simile where the author compare his relationship with a person, with a fishing hook in hies eye. I also think that is an irony, because a hook into the eye is something that bothers you and causes you pain, sow the relationship will be bad.
