-^-for posterity-^-

there’s a large, concrete box near where i live. it’s where all the teachers wash themselves.

i’ve actually never seen a female teacher washing themselves there. it’s always men. they walk out in their underwear, lather up and bathe.

first they cover themselves in water. secondly, they use their soap and wash all over. thirdly, they rinse off. it’s a simple process but they end up doing it on the side of the road.

the road that leads to our house is gravel. it is full of potholes. the large, concrete box sits right along side the road. that’s where people take baths.

i don’t know how the female teachers get clean. i don’t know if they ever take a bath. i know how the male teachers get clean. they rinse by the side of the road. i don’t know how they ever actually feel clean though.
