List two examples from “Avarice” and explain how they help you learn the speaker’s point of view.
At six, she chewed off
The seven porcelain buttons
From her sister's christening gown
& hid them in a Prince Albert can
On a sill crisscrossing the house
In the spidery crawlspace.
She'd weigh a peach in her hands
Till it rotted. At sixteen,
She gazed at her little brother's
Junebugs pinned to a sheet of cork,
Assaying their glimmer, till she
Buried them beneath a fig tree's wide,
Green skirt. Now, twenty-six,
Locked in the beauty of her bones,
She counts eight engagement rings
At least twelve times a day.
