I HAVE BEEN USING DANTE AS A PUNCHING BAG

Poor Dante, I have been using
him as a punching bag, looking
at my own writings through his.
Or not poor. Perhaps we need
a feminist take that gives Dante
same treatment he gave to Donna
Bice, makes him an object, his
existence merely an extension
of the life of Beatrice, nothing
without her, subject to it.
