dVerse: Poetics ~ Alice
Alice falls into a hole
and several of her land
one too small
one too tall
true blue pinafore...just right
one way through the looking glass
i say she shatters self
and off she goes
several ways at once
in search of "this way out"
along the way she meets
a scattered hare too late
a cat with hookah high on quips
a knight in full daylight
joined at tea by hedgehogs
and other hedgerow critters
comes the odd Mad Hatter
of all the ones in wonderland
he's the one who seems to matter
though he might be mad
he leads her back
through the looking glass
where one cannot truly see
back home she finds herself
but does she have the
memory?
(This doesn't flow well and my brain just isn't working. My main thought was that Alice split when she landed but returned home whole again...similar to my path in life.)
