we do what we do

I know this guy with a mealworm for an eye—
like people that know each other
well,
I raped him in the anus
until he cried.

His tears didn’t turn me on,
but I thought we
had a lot in common
I asked him
afterward, ” can
you spare a dollar?”

I thought he’d be
cool with it. After all
we’d gotten to be so close
