How does Ellen Bass use imagery in I Never Told Anyone: Writings by Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse?

Imagery:

"She smells the canvas walls, the plastic floor, and looks straight ahead, concentrating on the rubber bands, saying Go away, go away to her father in her mind, go to sleep. He is waiting."

"I couldn't say yes and tell them how he had loved me once for a few minutes and how he had held me close before he thought I had peed in my bed. My uncles would kill me and Grandmother Baxter would stop speaking, as she often did when she was angry. And all those people in court would stone me as they had stoned the harlot in the Bible."
