Explanation:

Allen Ginsberg, a Beat Generation poet, often used unconventional imagery. Federico García Lorca was also an unconventional, avant - garde poet. The allusion to Lorca in the poem's surreal, unconventional imagery (wives in avocados, babies in tomatoes) is likely to show respect for Lorca's unconventional poetic style. The other options: celebrating affinity for Spanish culture is not the main point here; Lorca was not about cultural conformity; and the allusion has nothing to do with consumerism contribution.

Answer:

A. show his respect for Lorca for being an unconventional poet
