what if?
What if the world wasn't whole?
What if there was no happiness?
You, me, anybody could ask a million things with the two words
What if?
What if the dead were alive?
What if all were dead?
Everyone, anyone, could ask a billion things with the two words what if?
What if the world was ruled by animals?
What if the world was war?
Who would be who, then, now, in a planet of those two words
What if?
What if we disappeared into non-being?
What if dinosaurs were still alive?
Where would we be then, if the Earth, our planet, was ruled by the two words,
What if?
