Show 'That' To Poppa Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Come to your poppa,
Boy!
I'm going to tell you,
What poppa expects.

Come to your poppa,
Boy!
Listen clearly,
And sit erect.

It's not about making impressions.
Or what it is you do,
To pleasure yourself to get some sex.
What poppa expects to get from you,
Boy...
Is respect you best not forget.
'Cause if you neglect your poppa,
You will have no peace to get.

Come to your poppa,
Boy!
I'm going to tell you,
What poppa expects.

Come to your poppa,
Boy!
Listen clearly,
And sit erect.

I could care less the height of your heels.
Or how you decide to dress.
I could care less about your manhood,
It's best you keep that kept.
What others suspect about you..
I want you standing on your own two feet.
I want accept nothing less.
Or expect to see signs of defeat.

Come to poppa,
Boy!
Be aggressive, bold and correct.
Come to poppa,
Boy!
Don't forget your identity to neglect.
Come to poppa,
Boy!
Express your integrity for effect.
Come to poppa,
Boy.
Never ever lose your dignity to reflect,
Your poppa,
Boy.
Be a man the best you can.
Show 'that' to poppa,
Boy!
I could care less who understands.
Me! ?
I'm your poppa,
Boy!

Come to poppa,
Boy!
Be aggressive, bold and correct.
Come to poppa,
Boy!
Don't forget your identity to neglect...
Your poppa!
Show 'that' to poppa.
Don't forget your identity to neglect...
Your poppa!
Boy!
