Alice Liddell 1852 - 1934
Deep in contemplation, or was it cogitation,
call it 'intuition', Alice aforethought had a premonition,
something's round the corner,
and she's come to warn yer,
doing all she can, before it hits the fan,
for she has seen a vision, more than a vague suspicion,
it's a strong affirmation of a predetermination,
and believe me when I say,
"Whatever omen she thought she saw,
it's on it's way here today,
and will soon be knocking down your door.
As, mirrored in her eye's mind,
all the portents are aligned,
maybe it's madness or mayhaps fun
there's nowhere to hide, nowhere to run."
'Alice springs eternal, in the human breast.'
Now aren't you glad, I got that off my chest.
