STORY STARTER
Submitted by Evelyn Allen Vale
"Two go in, and one comes out" is the start to a dark nursery rhyme that everyone in the town knows.
Write a story which features this rhyme and its tale.
Pride Collection 39:Marriage
Two go in
One comes out
Is that not how it works
In love
In marriage
In forever
Couples of all shapes and sizes
People of all backgrounds
Humans one in all
They walk into a chapel
a courthouse a church
Or their grandmothers yard
Their love is pronounced
You may kiss now
Two go in one comes out
Brides
And grooms
So many options
A man and a woman
a woman and a man
Two men
Two women
Anything in between
But no matter what
2 go in
1 comes out
