I'm your Father

CW paternal abuse

A poem designed to be read aloud. The first line in each verse is from my father and is spoken in a cadence sing-song type voice "I'm - your - fa-th-er - show- me -some - respect." The second line of each verse is from me.

I'm your Father

I'm your father show me some respect, 
I only asked if you'd like a cup of tea

I'm your father show me some respect, 
I only asked if you wanted to go out

I'm your father show me some respect, 
I only asked you to stop shouting at me

I'm your father show me some respect, 
I only asked you to stop kicking me, 

I'm your father show me some respect, 
You're killing me.
