Rabbit Hole

What dangers lurk on the dark side of one’s imaginary world what fantasy will lure you to your undoing in such conniving ways so innocent her smile she will entice you most beguiling charms down an endless rabbit hole deceiving snare illusion turned to quicksand and to what end you ask it’s nothing more than a silly game ~ beware AP: Honorable Mention 2021 Originally posted on November 10, 2019

What dangers lurk on the dark side of one’s / imaginary world what fantasy... That's how iambic pentameter in the beginning of the poem lures readers to undoing in such a conniving way. Beware, reader) Quicksandly penned, Line. A true rabbit hole.

This reminds me of Lewis Carrol and Alice. It has such a deadly "ring" to it.

Games can be dangerous... we just don't know. We need to read the rules... lol.. but we never do, until they are often broken. Loved it... you are exceptional. Ann
