Oh,mother was it my fault I was born?
You conceived me in a country waging war
So once for sure you did not sleep alone
I was too thin, the doctor was alarmed
My sin of prematurity was scored
Oh,mother was it my fault I was born?
Thank you for your milk, your breast, my home
In sadness wish you’d loved me or adored
Dad once said you did not sleep alone
I could not be an infant, was forlorn
While you weaned me in my rage I bawled
Oh,mother, why the judgement of love scorned?
I frightened you by reading minds and bones
Evoked death sentences while still unborn
I’m glad you did not always sleep alone
Why keep knocking on the oven door?
Sylvia Plath used gas ,that Nazi porn
Oh,mother reason can’t prove I was born
But you helped the human race and kept some warm
