How does a simile most clearly contribute to the overall meaning of this
poem?
Welcome to my room where everything's a mess.
My sneakers share their smelly perfume,
A collection of dinner plate leftovers linger like uninvited guests,
Here, last week's grubby garments pile high to the sky,
There, crumpled papers sleep around the trash can nearby
Now Mom, the Boss, stands in the doorway and fumes:
"You'll lose your allowance if it's not clean by noon."
OA. "Mom, the Boss" suggests that Mom makes the rules about
cleanliness.
B. "Where everything's a mess" suggests that almost nothing in the
room is clean.
C. "Last week's grubby garments" suggests that the clothes are dirty.
D. "Iike uninvited quests" suggests that the leftovers are not wanted
