Your Father's Day Gift

By Deathkitten

Dear father,
I don't blame you
for never coming back
or the fact that you never knew
until I was a court room surprise
looking at you
looking like you
with your dark hair & eyes
when your lawyer told you
to send me to the white room
where they ran blood tests
for your confirmation
like anyone needed it
Hesitation
turned into obligation
and another mistake
you paid for
but you left me to die
inside my mother's eyes
and to the distributor
that would hand me out
to those in need
I'm surprised
that he didn't sniff my pissy diapers
and decide to jack off
or save my training panties
to rub them on his balls
but I never meant more
than an object
or an obstacle
It lead to another
and it was kinda messy
but then I didn't exist
so I hope you don't mind
that I forgot your Father's Day Gift

    this is very well written and I imagine a little awkward to write about a man that more or less abandoned you from his life. but he went through the trouble to see you but only in a court room just to prove hes not the father. I think your better off without him. and I wouldn't apologize for not thinking of him jess! its sad to think of your father not wanting to be a father and its gotta be hurtful when he doesn't want the responsibility of being a father to you. i'll take a moment of silence because im hurting for you. awesome jess!

    A work of resonance to all mindless sperm donors, hopefully. This was masterful, thanks!
