"DEAR OLE DAD"

Fathers Day Has Passed Now...For Most Of You Guys It Was A Day To Remember Dear Ole Dad(Be Him Alive Or Not)...But For me..It Was Quite The Opposite..All Fathers Day Did Was Resurrect Memories
Memories Of When I Was 4 Years Old... When Memere And Pepere Were Visiting(Daddy Was Gone At The Time)
My Father Came Storming Through The Door And Directly Started Hitting My Mother...Memere And Pepere Left In A Flash
Im 4 Years Old And I Was Scared(I Learned Later On In Life My Father Had Lost At The Horse Track And Was Taking It Out On Her)
Now He has a Knife In His right Hand..And My Mothers Holding That Hand For Dear Life(As they Struggle through The Kitchen)
I Started Crying And Ran Under The Bed(Nice Thing For A 4 yr Old To See)..After A While I Came Out... And Witnessed My Father Hit My Mother On The Wrist With A Dog Leash Type Chain(Broke her wrist For Sure
The Time When I Was 8 Yrs Old..And My Father Was Drinking..Insulting My Mothers Side Of The Family
My Mother Came Out With A Broom And Hit Him On The Head With It
Then She Runs From Him As He Throws A Quart Bottle Of Beer At Her And Gets Her In The Head(My Mother Was In a Cast Type Thing For A Long Time)
The Times Id Get A Whipping With The Strap For Things He Could Have Just Talked To Me About(And Left Marks On Me For Weeks)
My Father Dispised Me Because I Looked Like My Mothers Side Of The Family
When I Got My First Guitar..He Would Say.."Youll Never Learn To Play That..Your Nothing"
I Feared Him And His Brutal Ways
He Enjoyed Inflicting Pain Upon Me(To This Day... It Haunts Me As To Why..Was I Really A No Good Piece Of Shit As Hed Tell Me All Those Years Ago? )
He Hated My Son From The Time He Was Born And Refused To Have Me Or Him Over The House...(But Always Was Nice To My Sisters Kids)
At One Time When I Was Around 12..There Was A Lock On The Refrigerator And On The Cupboards(Id Come Home From School... When They Werent There..And There Was Nothing To Eat
These Are Just A Few Examples Of How My Father Was
The Last 14 Years Of His Life..I Never Saw Him..And Then(7 Years After He Died)Was When I Found Out He Passed
No...Fathers Day Is Alien To Me
Nope...Fathers Day Is Just Bad Memories
Its Just As Well That He Passed Away....Why?
Because He Forgot Just One Thing...And That Is
"Little Boys Grow Up To Be Men"(Lucky For Him)
