Won’t miss this dump; teachers, lessons, nuffin. I sling my tie through the chain-link fence, set it on fire with my older bro’s lighter, and head to the offy. Freedom!
A couple of years later, though, stacking shelves with cold hands, I think...maybe school weren’t so bad, after all

Two fab stories here by @nomad-sw18.bsky.social for @frazzledlit.bsky.social. Both so sumptuous, and both feel connected, with a theme of disposing of "inconvenient" parts
