HEDCen: Morning Assembly

Today in school, I had a big, tattered box brought to the assembly for everyone to see.

2 gray school uniforms with molds growing on chocolate stains
a backpack with a week-old lunch inside
water bottles still with fingerprints on them
a shoebox with trinkets or left-overs of some school project
a cloth bag with soccer shoes
bags
more bags
jogging pants
PE uniforms
spoons and forks
dirty socks
folders
notebooks...

and brains left and completely forgotten for days  by the absent-minded owners...

All of these items LOST and UNCLAIMED.


Aaaahh! School!
