epitome of incomprehensibility
I'm
wearing
a
white
blouse
and
skirt
to
my
first
day
as
an
elementary
school
teacher
in
what
looks
like
the
basement
of
the
former
Cedar_Christian_Academy
.
Looking
like
.
I
think
I
look
like
Lana del Rey
in
the
video
for
"
Summertime
Sadness
."
This
makes
me
confident
.
But
then
I
look
down
and
see
the
skirt's (deliberate)
tiny
holes
,
part
of
its
curtain
-ish
pattern
.
I'm
worried
the
students'
parents
will
think
this
is
too
immodest,
even
though
the
skirt
itself
reaches
my
knees
.
(
Huh
,
this
really
is
a
version
of
Cedar Christian,
where
skirts
had
to
be
knee
-length.
Curse
that
school
for
distorting
my
understanding
of
the
word
"
modest
" -
when
it's
actually
a
virtue
,
it's
usually
non
-clothes-related.)

...
raze
the
dark
canopy
that's
become
my
go
-to
winter
garment
has
its
hood facing
the
wrong
way
.
i
don't
know
how
this
happened
.
the
material
has
changed
from
dyed cotton
to
some
sort
of
brown
faux fur.
soft
to
the
touch
but
wrong
in
every
way
that
counts.
i
have
another
hoodie
.
a
replica
of
the
original.
its
presence
in
my
closet
isn't
explained.
i
lay
one
on
top
of
the
other
and
see
how
they
fit
together
, protean
puzzle
pieces
with
kangaroo
pockets
and
featureless
faces
.
i
can't
decide
which
one
i
want
to
wear
.

...
raze
no
longer
wanting
the
warmth
i've
woven
,
i
peel
off
one
layer
after
another
.
five
shirts
in
,
i
still
haven't
found
a
way
to
strip
down
to
the
skin
.
