William Blake - To Nobodaddy

Why art thou silent & invisible 
Father of jealousy 
Why dost thou hide thyself in clouds 
From every searching Eye

Why darkness & obscurity 
In all thy words & laws 
That none dare eat the fruit but from 
The wily serpents jaws 
Or is it because Secresy
gains females loud applause

Poet: William Blake Poem: To Nobodaddy Comment 1 of 1, added on June 1st, 2007 at 11:52 AM. Who is nobodaddy -- is that like nobody's god? I feel it's very ingenious and yet I can't grasp this poem really. For one thing, it seems like it should be female's (possessive) possibly though another site I checked has it like this. I feel dumb today. ea More Comments >> Are you looking for more information on this poem? Perhaps you are trying to analyze it? The poem, To Nobodaddy, has received one comment so far.
