These opposites essentially represent not only the tendency of this world to possess conflicting images, but also an individual’s tendency to have conflicting emotions as well as the struggles between individuals.

Audience Analysis Statement My audience are two sets of groups. The first set of audience is the people whom look for more than a great deal on wings, they look at the quality of the wings. These people know the importance of getting served the best type of wings and nothing, but the best.

In Sherwood Anderson’s “Hands”, the main character, Wing Biddlebaum’s ambiguous actions (both physical and psychological) are often misinterpreted and get him into trouble due to his tendency to express himself through his hands.

Chomsky works to defend the desire for the community desire for creative expression, as well as the innate
