Alice through the Looking Glass
chapter 1
Once upon a time,
there came into being a little girl
named Alice.
Innocent & questioning
proper child in a proper world
where cats wash kittens and kittens play with yarn
and a looking-glass hung on the wall.
What world through the glass
twisting and dark
misted and immeasurable
where proper is turned about
and chess pieces scold and reign
And what of the girl on the other side?
ecilA watches
from where the flowers talk
and all paths lead home
the looking-glass world
of kittens and snow
