Growing up a twin I never worried about belonging because I had an automatic beat friend. We hung out with kids in the neighbourhood but we were just as happy playing by ourselves. If you look in my Facebook friends list a good portion of them are from public school. High school was just a place where we went to learn and went back home. We weren’t artistic (although Janet was really good in art), we weren’t in the band or choir and we weren’t “academic”. We were teased because we were different.

I volunteer.

In the Periphery

I want to be
that cigarette
you smoke.
That bitch
that gets to
kiss your lips
and fills
your soul
with pleasure.
I want to be
the one
that you suck
with your lips
until you’re
satisfied.
I want to be
that glass
of whiskey.
That sucker
you love to
feel in your
hand,
that burns
your thirsty
tongue.
I want to be
all that
for you
even though
I know
you love to
throw them
when you’re
done,
without saying
goodbye.
I volunteer.

Shondra was new in school.She was pretty and friendly, but the year was already well under way, and she was having trouble establishing herself. She figured out pretty quickly who the cool kids were, and that’s where she felt she belonged. Some of the other kids, perfectly nice but not cool, were friendly toward her.  Didn’t matter. She knew where she needed to be.

One morning, Mrs.Crandall was walking down the hall to her classroom. She noticed Shondra slipping small white envelopes into several of the lockers. She didn’t sense anything furtive in Shondra’s behavior, but she figured she’d better make sure.

“Good morning, Shondra!  What are you up to so early in the morning?”

Shondra’s eyes rounded for just a moment,  but then she laughed. “I’m not up to anything, Mrs. Crandall.  You know I’ve been having…
