Psychological approach criticism relies upon psychosocial theories in analyzing works of literature. This link between “literary works and psychological theories brings elements of scientific work into the world of literary criticism” (Kuhns, 1983). We shall look at Sigmund Freud and Kristeva’s theories in order to criticize poems by Emily Dickinson. Psychoanalysis investigates the subconscious mental processes. Other scholars view psychoanalysis as a therapy for treating disorders. According to Freud, society undergoes a sublimation i.e. uses creative processes to channel its unconsciousness. Elements of creative processes involve literary works. The focus is mainly on gendered pleasure and sexual motives in every individual’s mind as the key driver for people’s actions. Dickinson had these sexual pleasures but had no way of expressing them in society during her term. Therefore, art was the only way Dickinson could exploit to express her gendered sexual desires. Critics argue that Dickinson may have derived sexual pleasure from pain (Kuhns, 1983). Dickinson’s A Narrow Fellow in the Grass shows unacceptable and elicit a woman’s obsession and desire for a man’s phallus. A “ narrow fellow ” clearly refers to the snake. Using the unconscious mind of Freud’s theory, we can look at the poem from this point of view, and analyze the poet’s use of symbolism. We can relate this to what we may assume drove Dickinson’s mind and the underlying motive for writing the poem. Freud focused on libido as energy which results from sexual desire. In this regard, libido influences an individual’s mental processes and maturity. Sublimation results from libido if an individual puts his or her sexual urges in a different context in order to increase their acceptability. When authors make any references to forbidden topics, in poetry language, they become arts. Dickinson tries to relate and conceal sexual desires in the poem by using the voice of a boy. By concealing her identity, Dickinson shows that the speaker experiences a gendered sexual desire not acceptable in the society of her time. We can disregard the voice of the narrator since the authors use their personas to represent their ideas. This leads the readers into looking at the subconscious ideas of the author. Dickinson either consciously or subconsciously chose such a voice to explore female sexual desires for man. Dickinson uses symbolism in her poems. The first instant of symbolism is in the first line “ A Narrow Fellow in the Grass “. We can relate this to the pubic hair. On the other hand, there is a “ shaft “, an opening and closing. The shaft is where the narrow fellow goes. Shaft represents a woman’s sexual organ. At the end of the poem, Dickinson also shows that the shaft receives the narrow fellow with tighter breathing . Dickinson also refers to premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction in the poem by noting that “ It wrinkled and was gone ” (Dickinson, 1998). During Dickinson’s time, it was impossible and unacceptable to discuss the dysfunctional erectile. Thus, Dickinson resorts to symbolism to explore female pleasure and premature ejaculation in men, or dysfunctional erectile. The society of her time believed that female sexual always had the positive sexual pleasure. However, she shows the pain
