Give a figure of speech from the poem?

Question

Incident

Once riding in old Baltimore,

Heart-filled, head-filled with glee,

I saw a Baltimorean

Keep looking straight at me.

Now I was eight and very small,

And he was no whit bigger,

And so I smiled, but he poked out

His tongue, and called me, "******."

I saw the whole of Baltimore

From May until December;

Of all the things that happened there

That's all that I remember.

choose a line from the poem and write its figure of speech

and how it adds to the meaning of the poem
