Playing Tricks with E-Mail

Taylor Graham

You write me from this unexpected
new address, the one he’s not supposed
to know about. You’ve got a new
name, “Ladybug.”

How do I know
you’re not a computer virus?
Or the pseudonym of a former friend
who spreads unfaithfulness
among husbands?

Until today, you swear, you thought
you knew the man you married.

How can I tell who
you really are?
