[FONT="Georgia"][B]man
blessed with Lazarus lines like the jailyard ears from SLAM
damned
a screw up since my 1st child years in jammies
Pappy's aborted son
he left my momma when I was born
I was a thorn inside the 18 year old eyes of regret
the future of a mental pimp dims
he gets this 16 year old chick pregnant
he splits
he splits phillies and flips them into spliffs
he's innocent and guilty
I am him
a grown up coat hanger in the toilet
I was jizz
that mistake 4 and 1/2 minutes later
I am "SHIT..the condom ripped"
I see my reflection
I am my fathers double personality's twin
he mustve seen a prison through that empty quart of Schlitz
thinkin to himself
"....it started off with a kiss
now this bitch got a kid..."
...his story is my history....
man
her heart must been torn apart into a million pieces
thinkin to herself
"....it started off with a kiss
then he started feelin on my titties...."
he left for a month when he found out
but she took him back after a million pleases
time owed so she got past the look on his face
amazed that the condom broke
him bein impatient for the next "time of the month"
she musta wondered "why....did he stick around for 9 more?
a few nights a week he screams at me that "IM A WHORE!
HE'S GOT ME THINKING THAT IM SURE THAT HES NOT THE DADDY ANYMORE!!"
fuck him
but she loved him
must seen somethin in him
prolly just a spitting image of me
she shoulda swallowed or spit out me
but she got the best of me
274 days later
he wasn't impressed by me
family tree dug up
cut up nicely and turnt into middle eastern pickets signs of "FUCK US!!"
everything but love
nothing but lust
unwanted
eyes red over God's bluefingerprints
uninterested in his design
torn off parental advisory stickers
adoption papers signed
cattle sold before its prime
she was probably thinkin
"this is bullshit
he has my eyes...."
...her story is my purgatory and this is my story and I am regret...
I was a threat to a teenage relationship
cringin'
when I think of my father throwin my mother fellatio hints
wonderin
If I've used lines of his......
and why didn't she listen?!?
family reunion dreams float under smokin newport bridges
Ive lived my life lost
and stupid shit equals court visits
drinkin liquor
takin pills
addiction
my adopted dads dad
my granddad would call me a "Piss ant"
damn I miss him
I shouldn't
I shouldn't even have known him
if my birth father wouldve grown up but he didn't
what would happen
if he didn't leave my birthmothers mother's kid when her kid was havin her grandkid
I'm blank with questions...
what was goin through his mind
when he walked out the door on his little whore
when she was havin his lil boy is drivvvvvvin me crazy
but I can walk from here
rearview mirror fixed
baby on board on the basket of the Scwhinn?
negative
put me up for adoption cuz you were a kid havin a kid
...it took me 30 years to be able to thank him
my birthmother died from a car accident weeks later
if she woulda kept me
I prolly woulda been with her
but I wasn't
I was adopted by 2 loving college graduates who had a dream and that dream was me
lord knows why they'd want me?!!?
the seed of an 18 year old of Italian and Irish creed
Tattoed memories of "I love to drink and I drink to love"
my new dad is a preacher and my adoptive mother is a nut like her son
I love em
I wish my birthmother coulda met em.....
a family tree with no branches and no roots
father......I am the old you with a winner smile
I owe you
heres a middle finger from my inner child.....[/B][/FONT]

0 · Wack Feelings Nosign Cosign Ether GOAT LOL ·I can relate to it, I too am adopted, although my birth mother is still my mom (I just switched dads).
Props on this piece, you really flipped it and the last three lines are really nice way to set it off too… but my favourite part of this poem in particular is that the flow is so effortless and unforced as much as the verses are laid out with headings etc… just a great piece all round, superb! Congrats on this piece one of my favourites of yours :tu

0 · Wack Feelings Nosign Cosign Ether GOAT LOL ·Yeah, it's dope that you can recognise something that affects you and direct it in a positive fashion towards poetry yet channeling the pain out of your system at the same time.
To be honest, I feel that you should let the birth dad go… only so long someone should matter, no matter their influence or significance… even close family. I know it's easier said than done though.
Keep droppin' 'em!
