    The underlined figurative language contributes to the meaning of the poem "Sonnet in Primary Colors" by Rita Dove.

    It indicates that the love Frida once felt has died.

    Here, the right option is Option B.

    Explanation:

    This sonnet was written about the famous Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. This sonnet dedicated to Kahlo salutes her and represents the same thought as that of the primary colours - red, yellow and blue which can't be created by mixing other colours. It means that Kahlo's style is uncommon and is cherished. It can't be created from the scratch just like the primary colours. The sonnet throws light on certain areas of Frida's life. She was married to Diego Rivera, also a famous painter and muralist. The ending lines of the poem, give a sneak-peek into their relationship. The love that both had affected Frida in a negative way and was maybe the reason behind her pain. The love that they had was dead and it was beautifully expressed by Rita Dove with the use of the metaphor described by a "skull."
