It’s My Song
So beautiful and free
I felt just like that once
the world my Wonderland
and I could do no wrong.
Blinded by my youth
forever was my troth
until that mighty fall
into the rabbit hole.
Now that time has passed
my body bent with age
my mind keeps playing tricks,
a lie!
(I tell myself.)

I’m A Cheshire Cat
I’m a Cheshire Cat
I got no cares
got a smile on my face
as I float through the air.
I’m not your normal cat
my fur is coarse and thick
I can be any color
and that’s not my only trick.
I’m a magical cat
with golden yellow eyes
I have a great big head
for my very small size.
When invisible I seem
you know that I’ll be there
I’ll reappear on cue
and never have a care.
Yes, I’m a Cheshire Cat
and that is that.

Poor Alice
Oh
poor
Alice,
Wonderland
merely memories.
Growing up is never easy
any little mistake and the Red Queen takes your head.
Try following an always-late white rabbit around your whole life it turns one quite mad.
