Smartest One In Their Car
This rag-taggle crew climbed out of a Chevrolet car.
We can’t read a map, they said, and we are going far.
Who is your brightest thinker? I asked. Who could I teach?
They all began to holler “That would be our orangutan Peach.”
Peach sauntered in and gave me the famous thinker’s pose.
I bet you didn’t think it was me, he said. He wore really tight clothes.
Can you read the map for them? I asked. Are you going quite far?
I will try, he told me. But it might be difficult. I am driving the car.
