~
Daddys Girl
by Mark Leslie
She has her Daddy’s eyes
In a jar up in her room
It took a while to dig them up
Because she’d used a spoon
She has her Daddy’s hair
And with it his whole scalp
She hacked it off with a dull steak knife
But knew a sharper one might help
She has the rest of her Daddy’s parts
Stored in an air-tight drum
She fancies herself a Daddy’s girl
But she looks more like her Mum.
