This is my tale you see,
The one all about me.
I never used to be insane,
I was actually quite plain.

Too many times my heart was broken,
I never was very outspoken.
I used to sit inside my mind,
"True love," I thought “I’ll never find.”

So I went for a walk,
To myself I did talk.
As I walked around,
I saw something on the ground.

It was a hat you see,
I placed it on my head; It fit perfectly.
So I continued my jaunt,
My hat people did taunt.

So I went up a hill,
Under a shade tree I did chill.
There I saw a hole,
To big to be dug by a mole.

So I climbed inside,
I began to slide.
When I landed I asked where did I stand,
A voice said, “This is Wonderland.”

I did not know who,
A cat appeared out of the blue.
I started to scream,
But he said, “I’m on your team.”

After I calmed down,
He asked, “Why do you frown?”
“Its my life you see,”
I said, “All my loved ones flee.”

The cat and I did walk,
And still we did talk.
We came upon a palace,
Its look was one of malice.

The gates were barred,
The floor was tarred.
But still we crossed the threshold,
Then by a card I was told,

“This is the home of the Queen of Hearts,
Turn away if you have the smarts.”
Still I made haste to the throne,
Wishing to pick a bone.

She sat in her red robe,
Me her eyes did probe.
They picked right through my brain,
This is what drove me insane.

I forgot who I was,
I woke up looking at the cats jaws.
His smile was no more,
He asked, “Who is your amour?”

Love I had forgot,
With torment my mind was wrought.
I closed my eyes and tried to think,
But I couldn’t find the link.

To love I was blinded,
No longer my heart I minded.
This is how I found I was mad,
But I couldn’t help be glad.

My heart no longer pained,
But I was now featherbrained.
My thoughts did race,
And disappeared without a trace.

That is when I found March Hare,
He and I were quite the pair.
Between us we had half a mind,
Neither one true love could find.

He had also seen the Queen,
Who wiped his mind clean.
We sat to drink tea,
He missed the cup with glee.

Years passed by,
I learned magic quite sly.
I saw White Rabbit walking,
To him I started talking.

He mentioned a girl in Wonderland,
Little did I know it all was planned.
Right from this new start,
I felt feeling back in my heart.

Later that day my eyes got a treat,
I saw Alice; oh so sweet.
My heart skipped a beat,
That was some feat.

Never before had I felt like this,
My madness had turned to bliss.

Passion in the midst,
Hunger is what it is.
Determined to make a change.
Scared for those in pain.
Pride wont let them stop,
Fighting with all they have got.
Acceptance of what is right.
Freedom for those in plight.

I spend more time in dreams than awake

Peers deem me irresponsible

Its true. Im always late to class

I. An irresponsible ***.

I go on Facebook
And see all the horribleness of this world
Misery really does love company

My Poem
 Dec 2015 SJ
Matt
I became to understand
That I lived in
Some type
Of organic simulation

Its so random
And so fun

And with each
New day
I see the sun

I listen to podcasts
Here or there

Now I will sit
Upon my
Wee little chair

My folding chair
At the park
I may sit there
Until the dark

I live inside
A computer matrix
It is plain to see

Nothing to strive for
There is just you and me

Human beings we
Do what we do

FIrst comes 12, then 1, then 2
This cycle repeats
Itself again and again

I am not looking to win

Empty yourself of desire
And you will see

The world is an empty place
And this emptiness suits me

Bodies walking in and out
Of doors

Want more money?
They promise more and more

And with more money
Comes more stress

I think I would like
Less and less

Less and less
Let's take
Many things away

Food, water, and shelter
To make it through the day

Then one day
This country
Got *******

And everyone got in
A terrible moo

The value of paper money
Went almost entirely away
People did not know how
To make it through the day

These silly people
Were just little pawns

And there I was
Sitting in the park

I think I saw a chirping lark

I had a match
I made a spark

I got my pan out of my car
Gathered some kindling
It won't go far

But just enough
To grill
These cakes

I mixed the batter
Yummy food it makes

Then the pancakes
Went in my little tum
And with a grin
I did say, "yum!"

Oh here comes
My friend
The holy man
Of Hastings Ranch

I waved as he walked past
It was just by chance

When the time together becomes a bore.

    When you start to figure your'e not the only girl he adores.

   As you realize the kisses aren't sweet how the used to be
            
          As you lie there in his arms perhaps your heart will feel like it doesn't belong.

         And when you remember the memories you shared from this song, you'll start to cry.
      
   When the fun nights out are no longer shared with you.

You'll be sitting alone asking,
"what did I do?".
      
     Nothing will be same, not even text messages.

      When you send the I love you text, just know he's texting his ex.

And he'll probably get to you in a sec.

      With a response like, you too.

   Sweetie, cheaters will be cheaters.
And there always be him and two of you.

I feel like I'm living in a house
That has already been packed up.
Displaced things.
Confusing mazes.
Unlabeled boxes,
But never unable to find the *****.

I'm too powerful to be open.
It's not secrets,
It's survival.
