Replying to a comment on:

Father’s Day (Free verse) by Dovina

Let every man who ever had a father Consider: I knew a man who, when old, grew bitter when young, he forgave As he aged, he complained when young, content The older he got, the more he criticized when young, he encouraged When old he revealed his core

I want it to jar - not just that line, but all of it.

The son does not have to become like his father. I believe the core of a man can improve.
