WONDERING THOUGHTS

 

 




I WONDER

WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE

IF ANTS RULED THE WORLD

AND ELEPHANTS THEIR SERVANTS

I WONDER

WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE

A WORLD WHERE ALL MEN HAD EYES

ATTACHED TO THEIR ANUSES

AND HAD TO WALK WITH HEADS BETWEEN THEIR LEGS

IF MAN HAD TO FACE THE SKY

WITH OPEN MOUTH DURING RAINFALL

ONLY TO HAVE A DRINK OF WATER

I KEEP WONDERING

WOULD IT BE BIZARRE?

OR SEEN AS PURELY NORMAL?

IF MEN BLEATED AND GOATS SPOKE

WOULD YOU BE ALARMED IN A WORLD LIKE THIS?

OR WOULD IT BE AS NORMAL AS NORMAL COULD BE?

I WONDER

I JUST WONDER

Since we have accepted senseless killings as normal I believe such bizarre instances will also be seen as normal. So, stop wondering you are not Alice

And if you really try to understand a joke, you will live a longer life and appreciate poetry more. I don't take life too serious and I try to see the funny side in every story to avoid depression .
