Fathers can be such an odd breed <br />This one particular is a demon seed <br />The row he sows is filth and greed <br />Caring only of what HE may need <br /> <br />Though my children he may hurt <br />I must try to not be curt <br />My heart and mind always alert <br />To the redemption only God can assert <br /> <br />Now what I offer is a prayer <br />For this man so unaware <br />Of the pain he causes so unfair <br />To a child so fair beyond compare <br /> <br />What you’ve missed you’ll never know <br />Poor miserable man life full of woe <br />All your money, your cars, your ho’ <br />Can never meet the debt you owe<br /><br />Rose Falcone<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dead-beat-dad-part-2/
