Making questions

?When did you write this poem and who were you thinking about while writing it?
?-1. When did you write this poem, thinking about who?
?-2. When and thinking about who, did you write this poem?

I wonder if ?-1 and ?-2, variations of ?, are possible.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.
