I Am Money

I live everyday of my life 

knowing that to my father,

I was a product for sale,

not a human being who deserves to know my paternal side.  

With dollar signs in his eyes

And zero thought to how I might cry

I live everyday of my life

knowing that to the sperm clinics, 

my existence is a huge profit to their business. 

I live everyday of my life

knowing that 

my conception

My existence 

was a transaction.
