PRESENTATION OUTLINE
The memories crowded and haunted them,
the sisters grew strong but felt weak.
Sometimes, he came home from drinking
Waking everybody with his needs.
Their mother sometimes fought their father,
kicking and punching until he left her alone.
Winters and summers arrived and left,
the sisters never knew what to expect.
Checkers grew taller and more frightened,
Chess just wanted to be older to run away from home.
She wanted to bury her parents to
because she forgot how to love them in life.
