So what shes only 5 or 6 or 7
She can work
And if only
She works hard enough
the pile of wood two metres high
all the silver beet weeded
there is drinking water in the pail
washing up done
and floors scrubbed
may be they will notice
that she is good,
a good, good girl really
and may be she has some value
indispensible probably not
but may be she can stay here
and belong...
Offering help
her little brother
sounds like an insult
or may be a threat
and so on from this day forward.
Dysfunction begins
