When Alice grew up she fell through darkness searching for Wonderland. Trembling she saw her life mirrored in a sea of scolding tea. Vessels of her childhood fell Landing as a wreck Next to a dead white rabbit by its broken clock-watch. The Cheshire cat appeared Grinning with decayed teeth At children garrotted by ribbons choking as they fell with Alice. The Queen of hearts waited for her to land stripped Alice naked, watched her guilt rape seeded skin Then ripped her heart out, watching its last beat fade with her blue eyes as death cards chanted 'long live the Queen'.
