No,not me

this is actually composed by Susan Polgar

What's interesting about this particular one is Susan composed this at just 4 years old. This means she holds the world record for the youngest ever composer of a chess problem. Fascinating stuff!

here is the puzzle,it is a mate in 2

Well, if board is turn for 180 degree and black helps white to mate then it would be:

1.e8Q b5 2.Q8xb5 mate
