Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Wonderland

Am I going crazy?
Down the rabbit hole I fall

This Eat Me, Drink Me moment 
Which I can't consume at all

Whispered voices in the darkness 
Where the Cheshire Cat may grin

A land of strange afflictions 
Where the hands of time don't spin

Late though to the party
Where the teapot may be cold

Land of over-sugared pastries
Heart shaped; tempting to the soul

The tapping is relentless
Queen of Hearts is at the door

Though the risk of being headless
Doesn't stop my heart's rapport 

The twins are set to argue
Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Head or heart perspective of
How this story's meant to be

The rabbit checks his pocket watch
As time ticks on.. twins natter

The dawning in this dreamland is..
I'm madder than the Hatter
