I'm not gonna call you daddy

by Bradd Howard

I'm not gonna call you daddy
I'm not gonna lick your shoes
I'm not gonna be your little boy
I'm not gonna sing your blues.

I'm not gonna get down on my knees and worship you
or open my mouth wide to service you.

I am not your right hand man, your go-to guy or your sidekick.
I'm not your silly little girl with a big dick
I'm not gonna play submissive to your dominant
or take a certain contrived gender role just because you demand it.
I'm not gonna call you Daddy- because I've already got one
and I really don't think you need to be looking for another son.
Because when my legs go up in the air
I will be the one to put them there.
So if you can't handle an empowered lover
then I suggest you let me go and look for another.

Empowerment is a good thing. So is this poem. Superb.

yes, the rhyming did rhyme. And rhymed with the theme.

Adored this! I could completely relate. Favorites, again. Seriously, Bradd. How do you do it?
