The Pyramid.
It was the Pyramid of Equality and Inequality, and it was perfectly in
balance. Because the Equals were at the top thereof, and the Unequals
were at the bottom thereof.
But the Unequals became unhappy and said they wanted to be at the top
for a change. The Equals said that this would not be possible, as it
would make the entire Pyramid unequal, causing it to collapse. The
Unequals were adamant, they would advance to the top, and the Equals
would come down to the bottom, and there would be no compromise. But
there was compromise, for the Equals persuaded the Unequals to make the
change from top to bottom, a gradual one. So as to lessen the chance of
the whole Pyramid becoming Unequal, with the impact of a sudden
change.
So a few Unequals went right to the top, while some of the lower Equals
went right down to the bottom. Things went well overnight, but early the
next morning, as the sun broke in the east, the whole Pyramid did
indeed become unstable because of the disturbance in the balance of its
Equals and Unequals, and it collapsed. Selah.
