worn-in thin

by Caroline

i bought my favorite tshirt brand new from the goodwill on east state street in rockford when i was a junior in high school. some of you have seen it — it’s blue and it says INGERSOLL on the back in big letters. it’s been washed at least a hundred times, accidentally sprayed with bleach, spotted with hair dye, and resculpted with scissors, at least around the neck. yesterday i bought some thread and needles and i mended the shoulder seams where they’ve been coming apart for a year. my worn-in thin, three dollar, well loved, ever faithful goodwill shirt.
