Sand Desire

Content

• Hermaphroditic Sand: man and woman: large brain and large heart
  • Remember, Sand is wearing man’s clothing in public: b/c they’re comfy and she can go into places women can’t that way; and she’s smoking when women aren’t allowed to
• “Stainless fame:” stay moral!
• Her soul is in contest with her senses
• Wants Sand to channel her “nobler nature” and “holier light” and write purer works

Style

• Sonnet
• Crazy imagery: lions, thunder, circus; defiance, roar; soul
  • Suggests that her gender-bending is causing a confusion of natural epic proportions
