Alice, Alice in Wonderland, daydreamer, poetry, time, wonderland
I am the White Rabbit.
I thought once I was Alice
Curious and full of wonderment
Treading lightly in stocking feet
Overly observant of door mice, tea parties, and hatters
Blissfully naive -
The world, my wonderland.
then,
the rabbit hole
wormholed.
And it seemed I traded in my mary janes
for rabbit feet.
No time for stargazing or lollygagging
Now there's just no time.
No time! No time!
Pocket-watches be damned
even Grandfather clocks mock my meager attempts
digital tumblings towards temporary tomorrows
digits daring, glaring
daunting, taunting
teasing us all
daydreamers and poets
to wake up!
Sincerely, Lori
