Curiouser
And
Curiouser
I follow you
down
  down
    down
      Into the most
       Odd little world of
         Madness and magic
           Jubjub and Jabberwocky
              Red-painted white roses;
                 Such a beautiful adventure
                      I have only dreamt about.
                    Still I'm bothered by how,
                   Even in a place like this,
               You only think of the time.
            My dearest white rabbit,
         I would truly hate to see
     All of Wonderland
  go and
pass
you
by.

in a pause a rest a period
perhaps there is the rest
in a smile or a kind word
maybe there lies humanity

or a cat licking his
paws after a tin of tuna
or a dog with a bone
gnawing

or all the ants finding
where that bowl of
sugar is
or a cloud fluffy

when maybe
you chance to look
up
or around

or hear a muse
standing on the edge
of a whiff or
a mushroom

calling silently
or a toad jumping and the cats
play with him.
I hope they don't eat him.
