For Sally
Every time she sees me
She looks at me
Like a worried mother
Like she knows something
That I’m too stupid to figure out
Like she’s the one
Who hasn’t had a drink in 8 months
Like World War 3
Is right around the corner
And she’s having difficulty
Maintaining an erection
And all along
I thought cats
Were supposed to be
Cute little furry
Multidimensional
Empire destroying
Energy vampires
Who slept all day
And shit in a box
Turns out
I was wrong
