After reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass I wondered what her dreams showed about her. Did the scary things come back to haunt her was her sister driven crazy by her stories? This poem is not as well written as most of mine but it would not leave my mind so I wrote this.
After Wonderland
Dreams that is all they are
So why did they leave such a scar
Amusing little tales you find
Show you scary parts of the mind
Fall down the hole of a rabbit
Start back up your bad habit
Falling up is falling down
Warned about her who owns the crown
Shrink grow shrink
What is the bother why think?
You will always be wrong
As you recite book poem song
As she goes to the garden to dig
Alice must wonder will I become a pig
Is she truly a snake?
Is the queen of hearts a fake?
Will her neck be cut?
Whenever she tries to interject with a "but…"
Wonderland taints her own mind
And all of human kind
Hr sister bored of hearing the tale
Of win and fail
In wonderland
How she almost died at the cards hand
Little girl stop playing games
With made-up places and names
Sweet relief to dream
Of place hit eternally with sunbeam
Looking glass shows what is inside
The part of us we try to hide
Alice gets no sleep at night
For the jabberwocky jaws still bite
Is she queen pawn knight rook?
Find a mirror take a look
Can she truly run fast enough?
To get where she wants will be tough
If she refuses to talk to flowers again
Will they call her silly again?
Is she like the unicorn with his horn
Or the lion noble born?
After going so far
It only gets more bizarre
Only two queens allowed
So why now is a new one found?
Why for her do they cheer?
For a speech from her to hear
Do they sing for her a song?
So she would say something wrong
To terminate the third queen
Nothing personal they mean
Now as Alice looks back
Was there a difference between white red black
Could she have stopped talking?
Of stories others found too shocking
Alright for a girl of seven years
Whose life revolves around secrets and fears
But as soon as you grow
Slowly you begin to know
You are not the same
You lose your only call to fame
The true world too fearful bland
After visiting wonder land
Wonderland is not gone at all
Instead it can back to call
Please review do you think this might have actually happened? Thanks for reading.
