Are there any LITERARY DEVICES in this poem>>>> ?

Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock





The houses are haunted


By white night-gowns.


None are green,


Or purple with green rings,


Or green with yellow rings,


Or yellow with blue rings.


None of them are strange,


With socks of lace


And beaded ceintures.


People are not going


To dream of baboons and periwinkles.


Only, here and there, an old sailor,


Drunk and asleep in his boots,


Catches Tigers


In red weather.





Wallace Stevens





There are no metaphors or similies or personification...Help!
