This makes me think of the poet Magi Gibson and the closing verse (well most of the poem actually) of her poem Confessions of a Wild Woman, from her collection "Wild Women of a Certain Age":


So please forgive me,
Oh mother and father who brought me up right
And John Knox who lurketh like a flasher
in the shadows of my mind
For I have sinned
And am not finished yet.


(The whole poem is available partway down this page on her website.)

(What intrigues me is that the front cover of the book shown on her website -- though sadly not my copy -- reminds me of one of a set of a certain royal's avatar.)
