Who is your dad?

Look at him
The father figure that you adore
One thing for sure
He is your mother’s boyfriend
To whom you were befriended
Familiarized to call dad
What of the many odds
Before and beyond the mirror
Not iota of resemblance
Your double chin is a deviation
From the man you know
Your mum quickly ducks
The baby bicycle accident did it
What of the crooked legs?
She quips it rickets
But you breast fed for 13yrs!
What of the curly hair
And rabbit pointed ears?
Perhaps its mutation
Genetic or eclipse induced
You are left in a quagmire
Dazed and confused
DNA is the solution
But your pockets are bottomless
Your beloved dad is a tourist
Your mother has the answer
But her silence is disheartening
For ever you are left in darkness
With only one ray of certainty
Maternity is factual
Paternity is to assumption
Who is your dad?
