» Poem: the Wonderlands of Alice
the Wonderlands of Alice

I thought I saw a white rabbit,
Running through the fields,
Running from a great terror
Into the ancient ruins.

I thought I saw a sea turtle,
A bull's head ,a turtle's shell,
A nobleman lost within his own etiquette,
A creature of virtue
Tortured in the red sun.

I thought I saw a dwarf,
A knower of the ancients,
An old one rich with wisdom;
The one who can look through the looking-glass,
The one who is separate from the masses,
The one who's free yet in hiding,
The one who may help.

I thought I saw a Duchess,
A respected lady,the mistress,
Demander of respect and worship,
Mocker of the castle and the king,
Cursed from the beginning,
Questioned by the ways of answering.

I thought I saw a Hatter,
A mad mathematician,the builder,
Of shadowed labyrinths.
The destroyer of this forgotten wonderland,
The one who crafts flesh and mechanics.
AT six o'clock by the evening,
He has his tea without inviting,
His old friends to the table.
He's gone through reality's limits,
Through the cursed shores and grounds,
Through Dementia's lands.

I thought I saw a gryphon,
The one and only remainer,
The representative of virtue and honor,
The high warrior,the divine caller,
The fallen angel,
Her morning star,
A cursed guard.
Trapped within the Hatter's cage,
It is seeking to take revenge,
To lead this army to victory,
And the end.

I thought I saw a Jabberwock,
Mighty beast,destroyer of this wonderland,
Gigantic creature built of separate bodies.
Lapdog of the Red Queen,
Who knowes what all this means;
Who knows everybody's fears
And uses them for it's own advantages.
Divine carrier of the curses,
Almost invulnerable ravager of the corpses;
"Beware the Jabberwock my daughter!
The jaws that bite,the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
A powerful malefic creature,
Who's seeking to torture,
Every remaining spirit
In these lands.

I thought I saw a Cheshire Cat,
Dancer of the games,
Cynical between the others,
Satyr between the inhabitants.
It always has a joke to spare,
Although it has the care,
Towards her and protects her.
He's the trickster,the divine breaker
Of laws and dimensions.
It's wisdom is from times old,
It's experience is very rare,
It's the one and only cyborg;
The one who creates the riddles,
To help her pass the realms,
To help her understand her worlds.
It's the only cat,
Omnipotent,seer of the actions,
Breaker of petrifactions,
Messenger of Bastet,
Blessed with the Flame.

I thought I saw a little girl,
Carrying a bloody knife in her hands,
Wearing the omega sign;
Frightened to cross childhood's shores,
Frightened to enter the cursed adulthood.
She was broken,
She was reborn,
In the precious blood of her parents,
Her victims killed on a night
Burned by hungry flames.
She seeks the truth,
She seeks her origin,
She seeks to go back.

I thought I saw a woman,
Fallen into deep pits,
Broken by the profane rules,
Forgotten by all the others.
A fallen angel with broken wings,
She's lost between purple hills,
She's lost between the celestial windmills,
Of frozen time.

I thought I saw a dead body,
A corpse in all it's elegant abomination,
A woman broken inside,
A soul who had once fallen apart.
She was impaled;
The bloody knife was still in her hands,
Her eyes reflecting an unspeakable anger.
The omega had passed away
And alpha came...
