Which of the following lines from the poem do NOT include a simile?

A.) a savage servility slides by on grease

B.) giant finned cars nose forward like fish

C.) the drained faces of Negro school children rise like balloons

D.) its colonel is as lean as a compass needle

A simile is a metaphor that straightforwardly analyzes two things. This is a type of illustration that unequivocally utilize interfacing words, (for example, like, as, so, than,), however these particular words are not generally necessary. So in here, the answer is A, since it does not compare two things and there is no words like like, as, so, or than.
