Dedicated to my friend Chris who told me this story.

This is very interesting.
A horseless carriage.
What a mysterious thing.

There's a handle in front
That you crank a bit
To wake the contraption up.

There are control things inside
That cause her to start.
Would you care for a ride?

Go ahead. Climb right in.
Crank. Rumble.
We'll give it a spin.

Here we go--a little correction
Of that wheel thing there
Should change our direction.

Well, isn't this fun?
A horseless carriage.
What makes it run?

We're coming to the edge of the lawn.
That's far enough--
Here comes the pond!

Whoa! Oh, no!
What makes it stop?
I said WHOA!

Splash.
