Share Your Story: Majoring in Debt

Jaws tight
Eyes unblinking
They clutch placards announcing student debt
With unsteady hands
$50,000
$85,000
$225,000
Twenty one and drowning
Phone ringing deep into the night
Working two jobs,
Small apartment, modest meals, diminished dreams
Diploma, a terrible encumbrance
Education, a brutal miscalculation
