Analysis of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 20
The theme in this sonnet relates to the expression of love and not sex. The articulation of love is from the poet to a young man. Unfortunately, there is a tendency, that when there is an expression of love, there are some who will apparently view such an utterance as commingling with sex-such a philosophy is apparently false. For example, parent love their children and express their love verbally and in other ways. Additionally, a dog is a man’s best friend and their loving friendship comes across in different forms. Whenever a dog catches a burglar or a Frisbee flying in midair, the man normally will hug and kiss the dog, and at times the dog will receive a special doggie biscuit as a loving sign of affection or an expression of love.
Actually, the words in the first line of the poem tell a story regarding the sense of sight as follows: “A woman’s face, with nature’s own hand painted.” This line is referring to the subject, who has a woman’s face that no one could have put on canvas; it is from God’s natural nature. Line two is an articulation regarding that of a master-mistress dichotomy of affection in the following manner: “Hast thou, the master-mistress of my passion;” This is a sort of rhetorical question about love and not sex. Here, the subject is twofold; in two different spheres-one masculine and the other feminine. Naturally, the poet has a sign of affection for the young man, who is the center of controversy in this sonnet.

Above all else,
we must learn to
love the state
If we are not brothers,
Just tell me kind sir
or madam,
Just who do we pretend to be?
Each day I do my work
And no longer am I
