“We're all mad here.”
Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland


Go ask Alice

about the adventure,

how she fell from grace

into that ungodly space

amongst mad people
places that go meow in the night

yesterday, she was a different kind of gal

believing in the impossible before breakfast
out of touch with smoking caterpillars


she left the rabbit hole
with new frightful  insight

it hardly matters which way you go
it's always a huge puzzle

It was no secret she was entirely bonkers,
whence the queen squealed off with her head

Mad Hatter served tea
with uncommon nonsense
whilst chasing dust bunny shrooms
chatting backwards,

then asked curiouser & curiouser

'why is a raven like a writing desk'?

They all jammed yesterday and today,
into clouds, sand & sea, so that
eventually, logic and proportion of the Red Queen,

only made eccentric sense to the dormouse
feeding your head...

&

uncle Walt getting richer on the hookah smokin'
blonde ***** pill popper,

~too bad the moral of the story is frozen for posterity...
