The tequila drinker who eats the worm: he is wasted, there is no nourishment there. Then there's that children's rhyme that goes "Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I think I'll go eat worms…" that’s not really born of a fear of not belonging, of desperation, of loneliness despite what you think; it is typical to the sort of delightfully disgusting things that children get pleasure out of. Yes, those eensy, weensy, squeensy, wriggly, squirmy worms: nourishment for the child in you. And while you're at it, do spare a thought for the poor worm, so low in the pecking order: the early worm always gets eaten! My poems are like that. They are happy and sad, born of joy and protest, written with care and thoughtlessness: some may provide your soul with nourishment and some may make you squirm. Come, let's eat the worm."
