IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER


Now I'm your loving father and you see how irritated I am as I drive the car, don't say anything and just sit in the back seat, swallowing the tears and blood from your mouth along with the ice cream and now know that I'm more than just your dad, now i'm your dad and i'm almost a demigod so i scream get down and walk take this sweet slap as a gift to remember who you are also take the broken bone in your leg and get ready for when I shove your head in the toilet, 'cause now I'm your father and I'm also your owner, now I'm your judge and your superior, now you're my property and your blind mother remains mute, now I'm not just your father, now I am your official torment, I am the routine of anxiety and failures for you to carry through life, I am this cloud of eternal anguish and now I am your tormentor and I am also your penance, now I am nullifying you, I am cutting yours hands and your feet, I am trimming the ends of your hair and your brain, now I'm teaching you like a good teacher, now maybe you can be like me, now you're almost like me and now you're just like me, now you're just like me and now we're both just like my dad.
- Hi, dad!
