What do you want of me?

[Jo Frumple]

Coquette- Thank you so much for replying!!

Yes, that is the point of the poem. Pretty much just expressing a frustration towards a father's overemphasis of financial status and financial stability. Financial stability, imho, doesn't really exist. Thank you again for the critique!!!

What do you want of me father? 
You know, I'll never be like you. 
Is that what you'd like?        
For a kid who'd be so quick to judge    
To scrutinize and dissect all too?       

What do you want of me father?
A wealth laden career and guise     
So pristinely white?      
Perhaps a glib well-to-do consort?      
The pick relies on what his cash buys.   

What do you want of me father?       
The dismal case prevails through it  
No wealth no power     
Will ever to you prove the verity
That good resides outside a wallet

What do you want of me father?
I'll grow up and go on to do,
With all love in heart,
Searching truth, beauty, goodness for all.
You know, I'll never be like you.
