I have been asked if I am really a Mad Poet. I'll let the poetry speak for itself...

Ode to a Biological Sperm Donor (a/k/a Father)

When I think of why I hate you
There are too many reasons to list
So, let's just stick to the executive summary

I hate you because
You made me think that love was something sick and twisted
Where pain and guilt made the world go round

I hate you because
You made me think that I was an ugly, wretched creature
When the rest of the world says I am beautiful

I hate you because
You made me think that my life was meaningless
And now I've realized that I am worthy and that my dreams are mine, not yours

So, now you want to know why
I never want to see you or talk to you again

Do you get it?

But I know you don't and you won't
because you never listened to anything I tried to tell you

And that's why I am done
Done crying,
Done trying to fix the unfixable

So I wish you no harm
Have a nice life
I know I will if
You stay the hell out of mine
