Sharing Pins

I stuck pins through my fingers, we all did. Only small safety pins, and only through the very top layer. Sometimes it was so shallow the skin would break immediately. But soon we all got fairly good at stick in the pins. Then you'd fasten it shut, pretend like you had some sort of power, the power to make pins stick to you. We didn't think about how dirty they were, we didn't think about not sharing. We didn't think about who started it or why we did it. We were kids and kids don't think and that is why everybody wants to be one. We didn't realize it at the time.
