Once, there was a person named Everyone
with no gender
but with a thousand minds
and always the attitude of the Norm
(Everyone has the right to a best friend
like the Norm).
One day, Everyone asked the Norm,
'Why?' and the question stuck;
and the Norm could not answer.
So the Norm was abandoned, although
(as Everyone acknowledged)
their friendship had been nice.
Then came the Non-Conformity;
a rebellious being, and Everyone's arch enemy.
But really, Everyone discovered,
this person was pretty nice,
and so Everyone came to like Non-Conformity.
Non-Conformity dictated the rules awhile,
until Everyone discovered the Norm
was really very upset. And so
Everyone tried to befriend them both.
But, of course, Everyone failed.
