The poetic device used here is personification.
The mirror here like a human being is shown to consume and take in whatever it is fed. It takes in the image of an object or a person who comes in front of it. The image that is taken in or absorbed once is not revealed again by the mirror at any later stage.
Hope it helps !

Answer:

To figure out this line, it helps to think of what mirrors do to everything they see they reflect it. Swallowing everything, then, is a metaphor for reflecting everything.The substitution of "swallowing" for "reflecting" makes this mirror seem human. It appears hungry to us, and a little unforgiving and scary.

Explanation:

Hope it helps you a lot.
