Default A premature epitaph for Wendy Cope

I came across an article by Wendy Cope from several years ago. The full article is at
http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2007...ardianreview14

Here are a few self-explanatory extracts:

One summer's day, strolling through a cemetery, my partner and I had a conversation about what we would like on our gravestones. He suggested that mine should read: "Wendy Cope. All Rights Reserved." He knows all too well that I am obsessed with copyright ... My poems are all over the internet ... I'm sure that this must affect sales of my books.

I absolutely agree with her about copyright violation, but I thought that we might be able to improve the suggested epitaph.
