I sure hope I never see you again.
Every time I do
it opens that
old can of worms.
I saw you once at a party,
when I was throwing up
on the bathroom walls
and you laughed at me
and I dreamt of you
for days.
One dream
you told me if I brought you
a human skull
you'd add me on Facebook.
All I could find were these
teeth
you knocked out of me.
In another you played
guitar on a staircase.
through a ring
modulator
and asked if I wanted to
play too.
Then you ripped the wires
out of the ring modulator
and jammed them between
my teeth.
I've never seen a can of worms,
but the way that you make me feel
whenever I remember you
is exactly the kind of
condensed slime
that makes up
the can of worms
that you are.
