My mother, Sylvia Plath, These days, I might laugh, Electric oven, you know, I was too young to know, One way to go-- It was an electric stove! I was too young to know, I used to live in dread, I learnt what blackmail meant, She got cremated, you know, I was too young to know, These days, I might laugh, My mother, Sylvia Plath.

MUM, SYLVIA PLATH.
My mother, Sylvia Plath, These days, I might laugh, Electric oven, you know, I was too young to know, One way to go-- It was an electric stove! I was too young to know, I used to live in dread, I learnt what blackmail meant, She got cremated, you know, I was too young to know, These days, I might laugh, My mother, Sylvia Plath.
A tribute to emotional blackmail. Feedback welcome.
