My Alice

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HU6aTsrYhE Check out my you tube channel where I read this poem.

In her deadly
blue eyes, I fall down the
rabbit hole.
Down
down
down I go.
I hit the
earth like a
mock turtle on its
back;
with a smack;
like a shot to the vein.
She travels through my
bloodstream with the
force of a mad tea party.
Her hair is dormouse soft.
I touch it, and feed
her tarts, as she
rides me like
a guillotine;
sharp and final,
with a purpose;
like a porpoise with a
fishhook in
its mouth.
I hold on tight
and never let go.
