It wasn’t a town called Alice.

The hat I once saw
was not mine but carried far
on Mad Hatter’s head.

During the French time’s
“Off with your bloody head!”
came splitting headaches.

The blade cut all ties,
the body without a head
ran like a chicken.

The headless horseman
gallops towards you and yours
mind over matter.

you got me interested in this novel written by Nevil Chute and the movie. I like how you use sarcasm relating perhaps to the French revolution or world war two. Heads rolling is a scary things humans perpetrated on others.
Long live Australia...

Thank you King Sami, i hope you and your Kingdom are safe. This was a poem going somewhere but like many of mine, ran out of petrol ending up going no where but on my scrap heap at writerscafe ,must have lost me head
in the confusion. Yes the Japanese were awful to prisoners with decapitation! Thank you for your visit my friend. Take care.
