The Invisible Worlds of Daddies

by Didio Antis


                                         How many worlds do we, unknowing,
                                         inhabit simultaneously? And how many
                                         grievous wounds do we, unknowing,
                                         inflict there and there and there?
                                                                —Hien Xi (7th Century).

                                    Castles and keeps of dolorous mien
                                    Rise and rise where, well-screened,
                                    Blindered men writhe in self-hate,
                                    Bloodied and numb. Oh, but they preen.
                                    Slaves they have to scrub and clean
                                    Turret to dungeon and yet the smell
                                    Which you’d think heaven free of, well,
                                    Never quite leaves, to permeate
                                    Always the sons’ wee dicks unseen.
