Tried to make a simple cup, ended up with a wonky alien vase

I was using some leftover cobalt blue from a job in Austin, thinking I'd just knock out a quick tumbler, but the gather was off and it started to sag weird on one side. I kept trying to fix it, but it just got longer and twistier, so now I have this thing that looks like it's from a sci-fi movie. Anyone know a good use for a piece that's too tall and narrow to hold anything?

Keep calling it "alien art" like @dylan413's cracked mug story, makes for a good conversation starter at least.

Turned a similar fail into a cool pen holder on my desk.

My old coffee mug cracked last winter and it's now a tiny succulent pot. Sometimes the best stuff comes from broken things. I still use it every day.
