I woke up with no memory
All alone in my bed
I stared at the mirror
A strange feeling in my head
…
An ant crawled up to me
I asked her, “Who I am?”
“I don’t know,” she said
“You must be The Giant Ant.”
…
She led me to her home
Too small for me to fit in
She gave me a potion
To help me slip in
…
I drank it all at once
It didn’t work at all
I remained a giant ant
My length didn’t fall
…
“‘Tis no use,” she said
“You just stand still
I’ll call my brothers out
Much against their will.”
…
And out they came in numbers
Hundreds and thousands of ants
Inside the pocket of my shirt
And all over my pant
…
An anteater looked at me
Like I’m a man with ants as wings
He scared the hell out of them
They left me with giant stings
…
And back they retreated
Into their tiny hole
Left me scratching my head
No answers in my soul
…
What if I wake up again
Tomorrow with no memory?
I’d be careful not to ask an ant again
Any questions about me

Well, I think you’re losing it, my friend!! If you don’t remember tomorrow it won’t matter! Someone bigger than an ant will take care of you! Hopefully not your Aunt!! (<: Dwight

I agree. There is always deeper meaning. Maybe once stung, twice shy? Or maybe not. Maybe you were just watching that old ant and aardvark cartoon. Good story either way.
