The HORROR of hearing your little five-year-old voice singing awkwardly along to a pristine backing track because your dad was just dying to shove you in front of a mic and produce a song as soon as you could enunciate words semi-intelligibly.

#Barely fifteen minutes of practice just “Here’s the lyrics; here’s the mic. Sing my Angel of Music!”#Mostly my fault because you could not pay me in stuffed animals and candy to get in front of any microphone at that age #mostly because my dad was constantly pressuring me to and I didn’t like that #I wouldn’t be opposed to it now if he hadn’t been instrumental in destroying so much of my own work for being gay and satanic #so uh… he’s not getting any asset of mine to use for his projects. No sir.#It’s offensive.#“I hate every single poem you’ve ever written and believe they need to be destroyed EXCEPT this one and this one because #they’re about my dad and you expressed what I was feeling in a way I can’t articulate 🥺”#Well guess what buddy I articulated MYSELF too and you didn’t respect that; you don’t deserve anything from me #especially not my voice which you have so heavily censored and punished me for using in the way I please #I’m kind of glad I sung so badly because that’s all he’ll ever have of my voice
