A Little Short
December 17, 2018
You’re kidding!
I’m supposed to wear those?
I’m used to pants down to my toes.
But these….
These don't even reach halfway to my knees.
They peel after an inch!
I simply can't comprehend
why wearing shorts smaller than your hand
is a requisite to join the team.
It’s public indecency thats legal.
Barely.
