A daughter shouldn't have to earn a father's help or love,
It should be unconditional.
Oh how traditional you came to be!
Your god forbid, I show just a hint of skin, a whore I am and was, a Jezebel from lore before, a Bathsheba if you please!
Daddy wrote with furious abandon his deplore and abhor.
Never she will be anything but a tease; and at her worst a sleaze!
I wept with tears begging for he, Daddy why can you not see me for me?
He will never have to atone, I realize that I truly was alone.
