The Zax - from The Sneetches and Other Stories.
One day, making tracks
In the prairie of Prax,
Came a North-Going Zax
And a South-Going Zax.
And it happened that both of them came to a place
Where they bumped. There they stood.
Foot to foot. Face to Face.
"Look here, now!" the North-Going Zax said. "I say! You are blocking my path. You are right in my way. I'm a North-Going Zax and I always go north. Get out of my way, now, and let me go forth!"
"Who's in whose way?" snapped the South-Going Zax. "I always go south, making south-going tracks. So you're in MY way! And I ask you to move And let me go south in my south-going groove."
...
...For I live by a rule
That I learned as a boy in South-Going School.
Never budge! That's my rule. Never budge in the least!
Not an inch to west! Not an inch to the east!
