Cupid's original Greek myth is transformed in Blake's poem because "both texts describe Cupid as using arrows to cause people to love."
<h3>How does Blake's poem transform?</h3>
Blake addresses Cupid's gender earlier in this short poem, positing a caustic psychological explanation to justify his rejection of a manly cupid.
Significantly, he casts doubt on the myth's foundation and proposes the notion that war, as the destroyer of art, must always be the destroyer of love.
War not only changes the gender of the mythological archetypal figure, but it also freezes human feeling and pits men and women against one another.
