I'd say the answer is D) it focuses attention on the vast, empty space in which the statue is decaying. Because the focus of the poem is on the statue, and these lines refer to the enormous space in which there is only sand and the statue which is falling apart.

Answer:

It focuses attention on the vast, empty space in which the statue is decaying.
