A Poet Who Doesn't Know It

The figurative language I found was:
"The road was a ribbon of moonlight" is a metaphor. This describes a long road that is only lit by moonlight.
"Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed" is both an alliteration and onomatopoeia.  It repeats words that start with the letter C and "clattered" and "clashed" could be used as words describing a sound.
"Dumb as a dog" is a simile. It compares something's intelligence to that of a dogs by using the word "as"
"His eyes were hollows of madness" is a metaphor. It is comparing his eyes to that of dark hollows.
The two poems are quite different. In the first poem, the author uses figurative language to describe separate details throughout their work. In the second poem, they only speak of the girl as a bullet without actually mentioning her.
Ugly Heart by G.R.L. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxRQNO8vg2Y
"This little heart and brain of mine say we're through with you"
"You're not my sunshine, anymore"
"Your face is a work of art"
"Your smile could light up New York City after dark"

"Stamped with a beauty mark"
