Questions About the World


Have you ever wondered why

There are stars in the sky

She doesn’t love you

We have one moon instead of two

 

Have you ever wondered how

Nobody wants to fix things right now

The world keeps spinning 

So many people are missing

 

Have you ever wondered what

Can be considered a mutt

Really happened throughout history

Is, forever going to stay a mystery

 

These questions are haunting

And some incredibly daunting

But maybe having these questions is alright

As long as you can still sleep at night

<p>The mood is curious as the tone continues to ask for answers.</p><p>The use of certain question and interrogations help the reader to figure out what the author is personally curious about.</p><p>The spacing between each stanza helps with the development of each knew question.</p><p>If anythingthing were to be added, I&#39;d say the use of punctuation would help the reader understand where and how to stop. Using question marks and periods wuold certainly help the reader to understand the flow and intention more appropriately.</p><p>Between each new &quot;Have you ever wondered...&quot; there&#39;s a statement. If you were to add a colon after each &quot;Have you ever wondered why/how/what&quot; it would become easier to differentiate each individual question. I had difficulty understanding that the second, third, and fourth lines were the ends of the questions.</p>
