One Hundred Monkeys

Five Hundred Monkeys Lived in Peace On a South Pacific Isle One day, Imo, a New Mom, Began to wash her sandy sweet potato In a nearby stream. Soon she taught her daughter To do the same. Then, five neighbors joined the game. But here is what we can't explain: One day, quite suddenly, All the Tribe was washing food. And so were all the same species, On Other Isles: A Noosphere that quite beguiles. © 2006, ShamsuJim Sign in to see full entry.
