Alice: down the rabbit hole by ~redmagnolias:iconredmagnolias:



Alice down the rabbit hole; I am
indeed
flying through the sky upside down,
clinging to the fibrous clouds.

Almost Alice,
almost alive; I am.

Not a being of my own,
but part of you
when your shoulder brushes mine,
murmuring (I am).

As we lie
(here, and to ourselves)
I am Alice,
and you are surely the rabbit hole.

When I awake (normal again),
snowflakes stick to your eyelashes, eyebrows- that little bit you forgot to shave
-saying, I am, you are, and
we are alive.

Author's Comments

Inspired by "White Stone: The Alice Poems" and the fact that whenever I try to type "alice" I always accidentally type "alive".

Everyone feels a certain way for a reason, when you read a persons poem your glimpsing at their very soul.
