hop on the back
of the Cheshire cat,
made of devil’s food cake
faint into the void,
ladling out clusters of
pinkish-blue whipped dreams
a bunch
of roses
on one
thigh
a bud
in the
middle
where
do i see
eye to eye
where the
Cheshire Cat
sleeps
now i'm smiling
Form:
As wily as the Cheshire Cat
Leaving almost nothing behind
A gigolo with ego fat
He was truly one of a kind
Definite cad in everyone’s mind
A kindle of
Black cats
Wearing wide
Cheshire smiles
Pointing their
Yellow eyes
Scolding the
White mice
For crossing
The line
much like her namesake
bit by bit she disappears
into the shadows

can't see again
cross you like a whip
just like that
quick like cheetah
cross him
hippo comes out
cheshire around you
around again
cross again whip like
I
A crescent moon,
The smile of Lewis Carroll’s Cheshire cat.
II
Yellow taxis caught in traffic
A row of sunflowers.

Fairview, Baguio City
Two feathers
Caught from
The edge of
Your mouth
From north
To south
Indeed, we
Shall witness
The Cheshire cat's
Mischievous grin
Saying once more,
Who are you
Cyril Ramaphosa
his voice box sometimes goes hoars-a
swallowed a Cheshire Cat, great white smile
running miles keeping da Amerikanos on the dial
Cheshire Moon
the bottom half of the moon smiled
grinning through the haze of dawn
soft glow casting shifting shadows
across the glistening hoarfrost
Submitted to SKAT's contest
she has
tattooed
on the back
of her leg
a Cheshire Cat
i saw it
once
while walking behind
her looking at
her behind
then it
disappeared
but
by staring
my grin stayed
on
Form:
A strange Cheshire feline, gold eyes neon-bright
Floats like a phantom with teeth glowing white
His low, haunting purr
Adds an eerie allure
For our kids every Halloween night

At his mad tea party; the Mad Hatter
climbs on the table braking cups and plates
provoking Alice, while in the patch the red ace
of hearts is bating Cheshire the blue chatter.

Carly Simon, songstress, big hair, and a huge smile
Cheshire cat teeth you can see across the Nile
You’re So Vain just might be about Mick Jagger
Love her Itsy-Bitsy Spider and all of her swagger
Prose and its narrative
the lazy alternative
Words most abundant
meaning defined
Declarative function
it reads codependent
As poets but smile
— with language refined
(Saint David’s Pennsylvania: May, 2024)
Bubble balloon buffoon did not need jester hat
His costume designed by merry Cheshire cat
Argyle socks created by cirque du Soleil
Splattered paint on coat has much to say
A walking artwork, enhancing this weird Tuesday.
night make your move
blue-gray tiger stripes and
whiskey yellow eyes
catch the moon
by surprise and
turn it into a
neon white
Cheshire cat smile
then asking
in your casual
baritone voice
Alice do you know
where you are going
my dear
If someday we do profess
Wear your brand new midi dress,
Fun shoes, denim jacket too
No one else but me and you
I'll tie my hair back, nice cologne
Cheshire boots will set the tone
A quiet moment with no fuss
'Til later on when it's just us
She crushed my feelings into smithereens
Spitting on them and kicking them with a weird joy
Her face distorted into a Cheshire cat grin
I could see her soul loved hurting me
Her mean knife was sticking out of my side
She made a running jump into it
what glee
and gleam
i dream
a dream of
the crescent moon
at night
that hang from
starry sky in sight
the neon white smile of
black and purple
stripped cheshire cat
that ask
who are you
before he
fades away
with delight
on the
otherside of night
Consistently sincere
rock solid.
Formidably weathering trite storms.
Carol your dedication
exemplifies
exemplification.
Whether shocked or soothed there you are
discerning
smart
shrewd
kind
You know your own mind.
The Cheshire cat's toothy grin
has nothing on you.
Both black and white
Kittens wearing pink
Mittens, sit playfully,
While facing the
Enchanted mirror
To their great surprise,
Those lovely kitten eyes
Witness a paper tiger
Appearing in the mirror
With a great big
Cheshire cat smile
Then, asking, who
Are you
April evening, blue and pink
The Cheshire moon is grinning wide
The first faint stars begin to wink
What kind of secrets do they hide?
April evening, pink and blue
The poet strives to pen a rhyme
Of star jasmines and starlit dew
And tranquil as a twilight chime.
Love sinks low,singing-
A duet between drowning hearts.
Her smile is the last breath before the tar closes in.
I play my guitar till the strings blisters,
Till the bubbles stop breaking the surface.
Still,the Cheshire Cat keeps playing,
Because silence is the deepest pit of all.
Part calico, part Cheshire, part polecat,
kits learn secrets of disguise
from Papa Cat, king of stealth.
"Goodnight, my little ferrets,
tomorrow, we climb trees."
