My Brain @ 100%

A poem by Sandra C. Bamisile © Written 4.11.2011

If I could use 100% of my brain’s capacity and not be limited to just about 10%, I would…

I would think of why I am on earth, and actually answer it.

I would look at complicated poems and chuckle at the simplicity

I would not sit through classes

I won’t need to go near school.

I would discuss complex science with my biology teacher.

And chuckle at his misconceptions.

I would be bored from literature because everything is so obvious.

I would hate soap operas because I know exactly how everything will play out.

I would understand everything my parents say, and why they are so bothered.

I would go around the world, and preach the solution for the geography of food and health.

I would question humanity.

I would…

There seems to be nothing left in my mind now.

Well, I guess I am spouting all this from the shocking 10% I can use.

I find it ridiculous, but at the same time, I am grateful.

Maybe it is naiveté.

But I am still grateful indeed that I do not know all things yet,

Grateful that I can be human, and make mistakes, and belong to a unit,

And play my part on this stage.
