Omg

He gave himself over
ceding all control
sharing his deepest
darkest secrets
his financial dealings
his real estate empire
even his past romances
with his new wife?
-- No, not with her
with his adult children?
-- No, not with them
with Bernie Madoff

Applied to Bernie, your question's answer is almost too hilarious to contemplate! Thanks, Michelle. :) gw
