To my mother
When I was a girl you kicked me in the mouth in a mean spirited way then would say. I am sorry. You think I was a possession to be had. Smacking me in the ear just a few days after ear surgery because I wasn't cleaning fast enough. You told me I was a mental Patient. I should have been left at the hospital.
Go bite the big one.
