ENQUIRE
Two dogs shagging is a memory of the playground at Pensnett School where I was a pupil. In the classrooms teachers inflict their physical punishment whilst in the playground the pupils also fight. one is being dragged by the hair across the ground, whilst another has just lost an eye from the piercing of a stick. . one pupil is having his head bashed against the wall , but the shagging dogs offer a respite from the dysfunction that is all around. outside the light of the factory looms , sucking everyone towards it.
