Oh, to be Alice
Falling down the rabbit hole
Escaping from day-to-day life
Into a world of fantasy
Or maybe to be Dorothy,
Spirited away to Oz
Only to find out
There’s no place like home
Out of the quarrel with others we make rhetoric; out of the quarrel with ourselves we make poetry. (W.B. Yeats) Here lies that which is inside no more, that which burns my mind and must be expelled. Here lies the greatest of all inventions. Here lies words.

Lost in Literature
30/04/2020 – Iso Well Being Compilation
I’ve journeyed to the depths of the ocean
With none other than the archangel of hate;
We battled giant tentacled beasts
And explored the ruins left of Atlantis.
I’ve stepped through the looking glass
Into an unfamiliar world
Where everything is sideways,
Back to front and upside down.
I’ve travelled through the volcanic tubes
To the centre of the Earth,
Fought prehistoric monsters
Long believed to be no more.
I’ve climbed through the wardrobe
To a land of ice and snow
While outside the sun beats down
On a glorious summer day.
I’ve fallen into a dreamland
Where memories do not exist;
Fantastical beasts roam the land
In never ending mystery.
I’ve consorted with the last knight
In search of a tower dark
Where magic, war and fellowship
Surround me at every turn.
I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole,
Lost in a world of make believe.
Reality is frozen now,
Leaving but a bubble of fantasy.
