NaPoWriMo - 16

... some flagrant whimsical quackery! :)) xx


Carroll knew his Carl:

he understood Alice to be
an alpha male and the

White Rabbit a Freudian
nympho (or dependent girly wuss!);

that Red power is the ego’s heat
our lobster-world slowly boils in,

and how T is the because
to every question Y.

Weakness curls the inner leaf
like a Duchess’s halitosis –

it withers up your arm like her
conspiring clammy palm.

Mania’s the groaning table
at which you’re uninvited to eat,

while balance is a Marmalade
grin disappearing head to feet.

Kate, it was the last stanza that rebooted my imagination -- the, "while balance is a Marmalade grin disappearing head to feet" --what a whimsical spin you have spun here my friend -- may imagination never leave you in a lurch -- and may peace and love follow each and every day -- Jon Michael

Masterful whimsy. Glad I don't know any Duchess's. Unless my dog qualifies. Patrick

She's a wonderful lass that Alice
Eccentric but without malice
I'd love to meet her
I'd gladly greet her
And pour potion in her chalice

Sorry Kate. You inspired me! Thanks for sharing your clever, intriguing and inviting write. Love and best wishes,

Regis

Ah yes, the 60's were good to you, were they not? Wish I had whatever it is you are smoking or nipping on...;-) Ed

Hum T knew it all too (so Carroll says)-- a bit unbalanced though, he's always falling to pieces when Carroll's not around. ...and can I say that I dig this synchronicity! I'm grinning. (Not with marmalade though. Can only have that every OTHER day. right?) --Charlie

Another clever poem from the daily poet...I don't know how you are doing this...I am enjoying the ride however...
Mania's the groaning table, at which you're invited....
love that line...

Much peace, love, and light,

Wonderful in its imagery that I can smell, taste but not partake of, for Freud would only say it was all about my thoughts that you inspired and the dreams I'm left with.

Just nipped on for a mo'. You've turned the upside down, downside up down upside up downside up. Yup T is and never fail to ask the Y question. I wonder if he got his upside down world from going to upside down places, like NZ.

I always thought that the duchess' breath was like that.

Kiddo Kate, a rather unique nonsensical write that makes perfect sense. As it would to any Anglo. xxx
