Arrangement of ways

There weren't any ways,
so they tried both
and failed. Fell
to arguing, divided
and apportioned blame
one way, credit another

argued again
over which was which,
and whether it was fair

(it was not)

and decided
to make a new way
behaving thereafter
as sister and brother,
friend, enemy and
acquaintance combined

- with benefits, natch
but with some things to remain
unspoken, undetected, unknown

and a little bit hard to catch.
