Elliot Valentine Lee, Mel Hornyak - If We Met Up Again

To Rate
Anthony
If we met up again
We would get cocoa
Arranged over text
In your taciturn way

If we met up again
Somewhere in noho
I’d get a pastry
‘cause i know you’d pay
And i’d have composure but i’d be direct
Ask for some closure but ask with respect

You’ve been set up again
Who are you dating?
Do you butcher his name?
Is this a trend?

Though if you’ve changed taste in men
Is that more grating?
If he’s white or more american;
So hotter in comparison;
Better at playing pretend?
And would you dare tell me my accent improved?
Or would you stare blankly, politely removed?
One night, in a party game
I said if i killed a person
You could be that person
If i had to lose one

And if i really had to
In the hypothetical
You would be that person
If i had to choose one

If we met up, i’d hide behind your office water cooler
And stab you in the neck with an adjustable ruler
That thin metal one you keep inside your pencil case
You can measure the inches i shove in your face
If we met up, i’d gut you in the alley by a club
Or your favorite overpriced gastropub
Then find every database where your name is listed
And delete all the evidence you ever existed
If we met up again

If we met up again
We would get cocoa
What’s in the cocoa?
Who can say?
