What, may I ask, birthed the Idea for this poem?
I am not the giver of the anal retentive 5.

Although the ending implies what you really learned through the experience, I think a more compelling comparison could be made.

I'd give it a more reader-friendly title.
First verse is good.
Third verse: Use immense or huge, but not both. Slinks should be slink to go with "you."
In the fourth verse you change from "you" to "he" Why?
I think you shouldn't.
Welcome to poemranker.

Not as good as your first. I counted three grammatical errors.

You seem to know what your are talking about, but the presentation is lacking. Description lacks color, the ending is not provocative.
For example on the last verse:
Always the risk
An act of God
Always new
Never expected

The AABB rhyme has a disastrous effect on story & mood but if you really insist on this sequence, at least chop up the verse into eight stanza's.
Watching a few good slasher movies could also improve on your poetic imagination. 'I scream with all my might', but the poem's tone is hardly more than a mumble.

It needs courage to take Carroll's story a step further. And here's the problem: you didn't. Your version turns a disturbing dream into a rather vulgar nightmare and in the process misses out on the fine-tuned philosophical jokes and nonsensicals of the original. This poem's like one of those MAD-parodies on movies but without the tong-in-cheekness. (And the MAD-parodies weren't subtile to begin with) So the poem has very little to do with Alice in Wonderland.
This could work, I think, if you strip (no, not that) Alice from her innocence and let all inhabitants of Wonderland stay the way as Carroll created them.
Let HER confuse/terrorize THEM.

I don't know about you, but....I don't rape my brothers, or my sisters. And I also don't use white powder or brown nicotine. And I don't despise those who seek to be different either...man's only enemy IS himself. Well done. We have no natural predators left, so obviously, the only thing that can kill a person, generally, is another person.

All the lions are clawing at your guts right now, because they can't stand the fact that your work is more sincere than theirs. Thanks for remaining Un-pretentious. Hopefully they will start to pay more attention to the cocks up THEIR asses!!!

I'm confused as to if someone made it through or didn't. I love -pebble-. And I I could use -Portend- as well as you use the funny word, I might be good.
