I wonder if what I wonder is what I truly wonder.
What if water became fire and then fire became water?
There’d be no volcano, right?
And what if we started footing with our arms and hands?
Then leave these legs of ours to float in the air to hold and carry things?
Perhaps their functions could be swapped,
And it could be proven that multitasking could work easily, huh?
Hmm! And what if we started working with the cerebrum only, and never the cerebellum?
By that, we could prove that the rest can be useless whenever we want to. Eh?
I really wonder if what I’m wondering is at least all I can think of.
Hmm! I wonder if I were mad,
The fact that I can rush into my room then suddenly freeze and wonder, “What am I looking for?”
Then I end up reversing my steps, trying to recall “what I was looking for.”
Hmm! And I sometimes hear a familiar voice in my ears, and wonder, “Who is whispering?”
Only to realize I had been speaking and hearing myself all this way to the maize mill.
No, I guess I have definitely become mad with these wonders. Huh?
I also wonder if what I’ll be complaining about
Will still be nonsense, ahead of nonsense.
Can that make sense?
I wonder!
Hmm! And I wonder if all women became men,
And that all women became—eish!
No, no, I’ll wonder about them next time!
I am again wondering if all the Socrateses were not making sense,
And that only the illiterates were the wisest and were paid the most attention to.
So, one illiterate speaks, all the Socrates listen and gain wisdom from them.
Would the world call this miracle or just another mere viral meme from TikTok?
I wonder!
Sometimes, I also wonder what might happen if money became valueless.
And then something new replaced it, water.
After all, it sounds familiar to our ears, right?
It also sounds new as if it ain’t life itself, to our lives.
Imagine how boring it is when fetching H2O at the borehole.
Would it be survival under control?
Who knows?
I also wonder if we all became cartoons.
OK, don’t worry! I’m still wondering if I’m now mad. Haha!
But wait a second and look! This is why I wonder if we all became Tom and Jerrys.
Despite their silliness, they don’t die,
And like in Bikini Bottom, we could also be able to judge and tell
Who’s happy, angry,
Sad, corrupt,
Deceitful, and truthful.
Ha ha! I’m still wondering how things would be.
Imagine, by doing nothing,
You’re called lazy and mad!
And what about overdoing something?
Aren’t you called an over-hard-worker and mad?
Ha ha! For the least or most, you’re called mad either way.
I’m still wondering.
I’m also wondering if we all became A3 Amazon boxes,
The ones delivered right to your doorstep,
“Knock, knock!”
“Who is that? Who is that?”
“It’s the deliverer at the door. So, sign here and here!”
If life was simple as that, we could all reach our objectives and dreams so easily.
Anyway, I am just wondering.
My eyeballs have actively been red since I discovered that:
Morning expectations are completely shattered by all day deceptions,
And that the nights that were supposed to be full of glittering stars in the sky,
Are now full of nightmares.
Ha! What a confusing world we’re in!
Hmm! And you know what?
Nothing to me beats the warmth of fresh cakes and vanilla cookies,
But why are they toxic?
They cause chronic diseases, like BP and diabetes to my own body!
What’s this partiality? Eish!
Now I’m even getting fed up with wondering.
Anyway,
Just as the network’s still loading,
The poor, complaining about daily inequities,
And the rich, complaining about overloaded duties.
Should I keep wondering?
I wonder!
