Physical.
Metaphysical.
Your many forms
haunt my dreams.
Glued to a bench at the DMV.
Re-reading the same two lines
on a safety first poster.
Waiting for the zombie to summon me.
Your price for max expiration
was the legal age.
Any uglier of a picture,
and I would've needed a twelve gauge.
Oh, card.
Your ghost form
is the worst.
I’ve been haunted;
taunted;
for twenty-four years.
I have plenty of shirts with your letter,
but they don’t constrict my neck.
Any tighter,
and I would be a distant speck.
The V is usually for vendetta,
but for me,
it’s a bully.
Cutting the strings of my life’s pulley.
