You've found me out! I never should have bought
your first computer, read you poems, taught
you everything I know about the sonnet,
or took you to a reading, introduced
you to my vices. Looking back upon it,
I see the little monster I've unloosed
to censor me can read and write and think.
If I had known that one day I'd be caught,
I prob'bly would have drowned you in the sink.
Love, Mom
