The Tortoise has spoken,
it seems it may be wise of me
to consider my Cheshire Cat roots,
disappear in the air in the woods
and lay low for a little while
before my smile becomes such a pest
that even I want to punch my teeth out
and punt my heart through a few rounds
of croquet until it stops rolling back
into my chest.
References towards American McGee's Alice in Wonderland, a flawless adaptation that has had a profound effect on me for years.
