The peasants came like swarms of flies

And buzzed the name of God a hundred times
to paralyse the Evil one.
With candles and with lanterns
throwing giant scorpion shadows
on the mud - baked walls
they searched for him; he was not found
They clicked their tongues

1. Pick out the metaphor from the above lines​
