To My Covert Narcissist Father
Lick this limerick
Pricks will always stiff
Care for you? As if!
I’m so damn slick
Suck my dick
Fools never truth a whiff
This first limerick I finger ticked, speaks to my foolishness around my father. I forgave without reconciliation and stopped refusing his presence because I could put my feelings aside for my mother and other family harmony, which I did.
Tonight I had an epiphany. He’s the same manipulative piece of shit he’s always been. He has not softened with age. He has always acted one way toward me in front of others, to gaslight what I have experienced in private. So I’m crazy to describe him otherwise.
He acts interested in me when my mom or children are around, but when I reach out to him to share what he says in front of them he would like to see — crickets.
