MY GPS; with apologies to Robert Frost

Some have Siri,  others have Alexa; but my GPS  I call it Robert; for it seems to always take the road less travelled by. I see the highway on its little screen; while I meander  down some potholed lane that somehow seemed to  have the better claim on Robert. I swear I typed in ‘fastest.’ but Robert is pre-programmed, so it appears, to always take me via ‘scenic,’ perhaps he’s keeping fastest, for another day. U-turns are his specialty, along with narrow lanes with red signs; bent in the undergrowth ‘Beware Heavy Plant’ with no room for the passing there. Two interviews; and both that morning, I’m sure some time, ages hence I will arrive; late; for Robert took the route less traveled by, which has made all the difference!
