The inheritance

shame
   humiliation
      breeding hate
in its fiercest form
so many acts
   deeds done
   or things said
starting the seedlings
      that slowly entwine my heart
carrying the genetic material
         that makes me one of his
his semblance molded into me completely
is what I hate, that which is most shameful
                  a happening......?
     or something within me?
e final breeding ground
   for all the betrayal
      lack of care
            spiteful cruelty
yet there is one thing
   most hated
      most despised
         and most shameful
and every morning
   I deal with it anew
as I stand at the mirror
      torn between
   shaving his face
and slitting his throat
