Alice had a looking glass, <br /> and Alice saw too much, <br /> the more she saw, <br /> the less she knew. <br /> <br /> The less she knew, <br /> the more she thought, <br /> then wanted too much everything, <br /> and soon was over-wrought. <br /> <br /> Alice chased a rabbit, <br /> down a hole into what couldn't be, <br /> just to see - - - <br /> what she could see. <br /> <br /> Poor Alice, ended up unhinged, <br /> and in a major fantasy, <br /> which only proves that tongues and grooves, <br /> can be momentary memories. <br /> <br /> Alice came to understand, <br /> after many years of therapy, <br /> that there is more to life than dreams, <br /> ... and things aren't always what they seem, <br /> or what we think that they should be.<br /><br />Barry Van Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/falsies/
