In "Sick," Shel Silverstein uses imagery to paint a vivid picture of the symptoms of not wanting to go to school. He employs repetition to emphasize the child's complaints and creates a light, humorous tone through his use of rhyme and playful language. Additionally, Silverstein uses personification by giving the imaginary disease a personality and presence in the child's life.
