PHUCK SCHOOL.
The building, the grades, the group projects, and the feeling that everyone else got a manual you never received.
Nobody has put this one down yet. Go first — then take one small thing off the table.
The wall
Other people's weightNothing here yet. Somebody has to go first — use the line up top.
The pick-up table
Small enough to do todayTake one. There is no streak to keep, no account to make, and nothing checks up on you. The count under each tile is just other people who took the same one.
Ask the question you have been googling instead of asking.

Phuck what?
Pick the one that is yoursPhuck that is not giving up. It is putting down.
You can respect a thing and still refuse to carry it.
Put one thing down. Pick one small thing up. That is the whole trade.
The wall is other people's weight. It is lighter out loud.
Nothing here gets solved. It gets named, dropped, and swapped for a move.
Come back the day it feels heavy again. The table is always set.
