Rubber Duckies

Once there was one, but...
One was not enough.
The need is universal

One was enough for me, but...
One was not enough
For her.

Once, then, there were two, but...
Two was too many.
The need is elusive.

Two was enough for me, but...
Two was too many
For her.

Once, then, there were none, but...
None is not enough
For me.

Still there are none.
None is still not enough
For me.
