our board game is
missing pieces
i didn't know
existed.
i thought i was
playing fine
until the rulebook
called for more parts
....your parts.
we tried to make
our own
but you can't expect
jigsaw pieces to work
when they come from
different boxes.
we need your pieces
to finish
but
you've begun
a new game
with better players,
a pristine box
with all the pieces.
i guess you expect
us to pack up
our game
and return it to
the attic
even though we went
through all the trouble
of setting it up.
