Alice

Emma Kathryn

 

Falling, falling,

Down and down

Neath reality I tumble.

 

Screaming, piercing,

Burst the vein.

The rabbit doth deceive me.

 

The looking glass

Doth tempt and teas

These foolish mortal eyes

 

But pay the price

For foolish wand’rings;

No chance for my farewell.

 

Banish me world,

Cast me forth

To the twisted torments of “Wonderland.”

 

Falling, falling,

Down and down

Neath reality I tumble.

 

Screaming, piercing,

Burst the vein.

The rabbit doth deceive me.

 

With a thud, I hit foreign ground,

A new door stands afore me,

A light through yonder keyhole flickers, curiosity beckons.

Oooooh! Wonderful feeling and rhythm! I love the first stanza! Happy, happy, happy! Nice poem! Check out all the exclamation marks! I'm feeling weird! But I have had enough sleep!

Ahem... Anyway, spectacular poem! Off to read other fairy tale things.

Hey Long time no read. First of and foremost...FANTASTIC!! Reminds me of the game "American McGee's 'Alice'". If I try to elaberate on how amazing this is I'll ruin the comment... too late.

4 Emma Kathryn replies: "Ahhh, yes, I've never heard of this American McGee's Alice but one of my mates said the same thing to me...don't think my English teacher approved though.
Thanks loads for stopping by, it's been AGES Kazz!!! You are much too kind.
Lotsaluv, Em"

"Doth tempt and teas" teas = tease

That was a fun poem. I liked it.

47 Emma Kathryn replies: "Glad you liked, thanks for reading oh and thanks for pointing out the typo...I always miss them...either that or I decide that 11180 at night is a good time to type up my stories...thanks anyway!

I like the repetition of the stanza with "falling, falling" - actually, all the repetitions here are really good. Great poem, the rhyme and rhythm were really good too~ ^^

18 Emma Kathryn replies: "Awww, thank you. I'm glad you liked the repitition, didn't really put much work into this poem...it kinda just happened. Oops!
Thanks for reading
Lotsluv, Em"

Interesting new perspective, and smoothly written. Then again, Alice in Wonderland always was 'interesting.' I've never been quite so sure of it after I learned that Lewis Carroll, or Charles Dodgson, liked to take photos of naked children 16 That aside, do keep up the good work. 'Fraid I haven't been able to do much on my own page, for reasons I have stated in an update, but its always nice to see other people's stuff 1

17 Emma Kathryn replies: "Ewwww, that's creeped me out now...ewwww...
But am glad you enjoyed, lol, thanks again!
Ewwwwwww...
Lotsaluv, Em"
