Three nurses mean well. By their charges.
Who aren’t completely normal. But which charge is normal after all?
Two policemen mean well. By their protégés.
Who aren’t completely normal. But which protégé is normal after all?
Two social workers mean well. By their fellow men.
Who aren’t completely normal. But which fellow man is normal after all?
A young woman means well. By her baby.
Which isn’t completely normal. But which baby is normal after all?
A hobo means well. With his plastic bags.
Which aren’t completely normal. But which plastic bag is normal after all?
Everyone means well. Too well. Too much well meaning!
