The book this poem is in, A Light in the Attic, has wonderful
illustrations, also by Silverstein. Those who find the poem confusing need
to get hold of the book and look at the picture of the MeeHoo with her
ExactlyWhat.

This is the best poem. I know, I know all of Shel's poems are just great
but this poem takes the cake.

This is one of the best poems I have read on this site, I wonder why it's
not the #1? It also explains how people these days talk. Half of the time,
my friends are talking and I have no idea what they are talking about,
because they slurr everything together.
