Alice?

I am not the only settler
who cannot repay his wealth.
I’ve been looking for confusion, 
to flout, again.

Take me forward 
to the timeless
left.

I love you, through opposites, 
Lord Huron.

‘Take Me Back to the Night
We Met,"

Take me forward
to the time
we left.

Which of these is backwards?
Which of these is forwards?
Fiction/nonfiction

Am I exiting?
Am I entering?
Am I timing this reading?
Am I wondering this reason?

Am I finally… in/out 
and all about?
Is there reasonable
clout in heaven?

James Barrie, please
whisper to me:
‘This is Neverland!’
Then let me, 
believe you.

Find a signed copy after,
and label it:
“Nonfiction!”

“Alice?
Are we home?
-unknown”
