Father and Son

Writer: Russell JacklinRussell Jacklin


“I have a good mind”

No, you don’t

You bully, harass, and cajole

But never with a good mind,

Ever.

“You just sit there”

I’ll sit, but you dear father

Can’t stop my mind from racing

across the universe, to view

The wonders

“You’ll never learn”

You never teach,

Or demonstrate clearly

What you ask is out of my reach

And my interest

“Why do you answer back?”

Your tone, possibly,

Shouting, threatening,

Monkey do what monkey see

And I see you in me

That’s why I hate myself

Because I hate you
