Wonderland

Chandeliers hanging from the floor boards.
A kitty cat and a rabbit play silence on chords.
I ask myself, ‘what do I see before’
The spiders swing across to sing,
… ‘We’re all normal over here’

Normal, I ask?
They reply as expected
Spiders speak in a manner so soft snake’s slow slithers subtly detect it
Did you stutter? 
Sorry that was unexpected,
The tea is late hence my feelings negate,
All for the price of ten shillings and sixpence
All my insanity comes with no deliverance
… I’m sorry, I must have missed the time 

Candle sticks swings from horizontal walls,
And out of the distance my ears compute several subtle calls…

                     Teas ready
