I like the sentiment here, I like the idea of a cartoon caption being kind of retroactively mean to the person in the cartoon. Good things happening there. Yes.
Really wanted to squeeze this poem into visual form somehow so I could stick it up here, as I sometimes feel embarrassed by using poetry as posts on ininintoutoutout. So here it is, more word than image, but so be it.

It’s been a long time coming but je vous presente another episode of Mother Was Right. I’m still kind of in love with the concept, so please send me any further fitting motherly criticisms.
