WHAT CAME FIRST?
WHAT CAME FIRST?

[Several questions, trivial and profound, and one absolute answer]



What came first, chicken or egg?
The square hole, or, the round peg?

Which was first, hole or the wall?
Why did Humpty Dumpty fall?

Which came first, fall or the spring?
Who was first, queen or the king?

WhY did queen ask the mirror:
Is there a fairer bidder?

Which came first, mirror or face?
Which was first, kiss or embrace?

Whom to kiss, short or the tall?
Which came first, bat or the ball?

Why the ball is always round?
Which is first, light or the sound?

If light is first, why it’s so?
‘cause, faster, nothing can go.
