Crash Course

THE PRIDE OF GARBAGE
When the owner of the house picked up the bag of garbage and headed out to the street to throw it in the dumpster, the bag was overwhelmed with the fear that she would be put side by side with her companions. But when the man placed her on top of all the others, she became intoxicated with her greatness and looked down at them with disdain.
by Osama Alomar, translated from Arabic by C. J. Collins with Lydia Davis
