Chopsticks

I met him at a party and he
told me how to drive him home
he said he liked to do it backwards
I said, "that's just fine with me,
then we can fuck and watch TV"

it was 6 a.m. and the light was gray
like it always is in paperbacks
he asked if I liked playing jacks
I told him that I was good to 6's
and all hell broke loose after that

I told him that I knew Julia Roberts
when I was 12 at summer camp
we didn't say anything after that
I dropped him off and I drove on home,
'cause secretly I'm timid
