Dear Dad,
Do you remember,
I was two years old,
You went to work one day,
You know,
That time you held a job,
For a full two weeks?
We waited that day,
I rememeber,
We planned to go to the zoo.
You left that day...
Funny,
You never came back.
(We never got that trip to the zoo.)
Rmemeber Dad,
In court,
When you and Mom filed for divorce,
And you told the judge
That my Mother was a slut who slept around?
Looked her,
In the eyes and said,
"Judge,this child is not mine."
Flat eyes told all
You lost
So you shot yourself,
No child support for you,
Right Dad?
(You ended up paying more than child support, all for a lousy $350.00 a month.)
Me,
Still two,
Remembers only that I don't have to run from flying beer bottles or worry about being locked in the fridge or the laundry chute, or worrieng when you caught my big sister or brother...
But then I have alot of siblings,
Don't I Dad?
Shame I've never met them,
No wonder my provisions,
Never seemed to matter,
Guess we just don't matter huh?
Well guess what neither do you...
Oh and Dad...
Happy Father's Day...
