PROMPT: Write а 500-wоrd essаy in which yоu prоvide а close reading of Federico Garcia Lorca’s use of paradoxical figurative language in this poem. You may focus your reading on a short passage from the poem if you like.    Whether you focus on a short passage of the poem or on a number of passages in the poem, you must, by the essay’s end, address how the passage(s) affect your reading of the entire poem.    CASIDA: THE IMPOSSIBLE HAND    I want for nothing more than a hand,
 a wounded hand, if possible.
 I want for nothing more than a hand
 even if I spend many nights without a bed.    It would be a pale whitewashed lily,
 a dove tethered to my heart,
 a guard who, on the night I pass away,  blocks the way to the moon.    I want for nothing more than that hand
 for daily unctions and the white sheet of my agony.  I want for nothing more than that hand
 to carry a wing at my death.    Apart from that, all comes to an end.
 A nameless glow. An everlasting star.
 What remains is something else;  a sad wind, with flocks of leaves flying away.  ---Federico Garcia Lorca
