Hey, does anyone know any poems featuring metonymy? I would be sooo grateful if you could tell me the titles and authors of some poems that use it. (They have to be poems written by well-knowed authors.)

Thanks

And marks in every face I meet
And still silent. He looks on shock-pried faces.
(4.3) Let the new faces play what tricks they will
I notice your glimmer among a thousand tired eyes 11
By you- by yours, the evil eye,- by yours, the slanderous tongue
(4.6) Your heads must come
Pray for him, gentle souls, whoe'er you be,
For the spirit that walks in shadow
Can't get you out of my head
The hand that writ it; for I love you so,
His arms might do what this has done. R1
New fingers stir the sod;
Some hearts once pregnant with celestial fire;
(4.14) Yet even the bones from insult to protect
My five gray hairs or ruined fortune flout;
(4.16) And last, she sat down by my side
And called me. When no voice replied,
(4.17) Blind mouths! That scarce themselves know how to hold
Out of their blood, returning to the sky;
(4.19) The glories of our blood and state
(4.20) Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
(4.21) On a poet's lips I slept
Carrying in my body the seed of the free
The life from spilling. Out, Out by Robert Frost
(4.24) All nations striving strong to make
(4.25) SEVEN nations stood with their hands on the jaws of death.
(4.26) I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear;
(4.27) All Greece hates
(4.28) A natural death, and Vigilance Committes
A government Agent
The callaboose. It was the Government in action.
When company comes,
(4.32) It is the Armed Forces who fight to keep us free
I see their antique pen would have express'd
(4.43) A spanish guitar
(4.44) So, Lord, reserve for me a crown,
Hands that the rod of empire might have swayed,
Her Picasso,
Charge for the guns!' he said:
You could quote Robert Penn Warren
Talking of Michelangelo.
Perhaps suspicious of Toulouse.
