COTR 3: Decorticate for a rebate
No standing strong for the box soon after paring up against a blunt knife. Corrugated skin, bleeding with card fibres, exposes the underbelly and inner foam skeleton all in the name of claiming back a few notes.
One blunt and not so rusty knife. One box with a sticker on the side sporting a barcode. A little dexterity for measure and a few minutes later, the box is done with a piece of itself.
Defragging will not save this corruption
Receipts the length of arms in order and a sacrificial slice off, the rebate cheque finds its way sifting matter along the postal system. Out of state, the drop box in the middle of the three at the post office.
Long in the nail and a wait to wait upon. Weeks over the six to eight but finally the end comes. A small gift to say thanks for gutting a shell and choosing one particular option in lugging around a behemoth in the name of remote coding and web development.
Token offset of a paltry sum to lessen the blow. Takes more than dollar bills in cheque form to lighten the load of slinging around a dead arm.
