Chasing Rabbit: the Burrow
Chasing Rabbit

Chapter II
“The Burrow”
Now Alice danced drunkenly up the green pathway ahead and tripped with a
giddy cackle as she said, “Mr. Rabbit, where are we going; I am feeling rather drawn to this place that is unknowing?.”
He wiggled his nose, and with his two fingers stretched out over his whisker, stood in a firm pose; “Who knows girl, but does it matter, for this place is like no other.” “I believe this one has a divine mother.”
So he leaned over and kissed her hand to wink at her ever so slightly; “Alice, come now we mustn’t wait, see look at my watch here, it is getting way too late.” She then replied, “Wow Mr. Rabbit, this is a lot to take in, but I have nothing to lose, so let’s begin.”
“Alright, Alice that’s the ticket, here we go further down the burrow, see the path?” As she hastily kneeled down, she peeked inside to see only darkness; she was very intrigued. “So dear, it’s very clear, you must need some help,
So I’ll push you near.” The rabbit chuckled as he followed along.
She screamed as she fell beneath a dark void; a slip in consciousness
she could not avoid.
Riddle
Into the darkness we all must follow, into a land of wonder where it is hollow?
