A Key and a Lock quarreled:
the Key proudly displayed its size
and flexed the strategic variations
which presented it unique -
the Lock but frowned upon
such a display, for, as any
lock knows, the real meaningful
workings are contained
within -

and each boasted about
its own importance,
independence,
and individuality...

and while they quarreled so,
behind the locked door
a bright Candle slowly
burned down...
