My Daddy is dying

(A very touching poem by my friend Nancy Hanks)

No time like the present to say so long

I know you don’t like me

I don’t like you too

But I don’t hate you

 

You lived a life of compromise

I am living a life of noncompliance

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to resist

I took every moment
