Perry the Worm Had a Habit of Handies

And he would come into the bookstore every day 
to sell off books he got from who knows where.
The books were very unremarkable. So I always 
low-balled the fuck out of him. He was so wormy.
I didn’t want to deal with him. I thought maybe if
I continually low-balled him, he’d stop coming in.
I was wrong. He continued to come in every day.
