POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Just to Deal
Every child creates their own fantasy
Some are just a jumbled mystery
Others aren't quite a simple dream
Most are real it seems
Kids see what adults do not
Somethings that aren't quite caught
Maybe those imaginary friends
Aren't so imaginary when the day ends
Maybe those tiny dolls that never seem to budge
Actually hold a giant grudge
Maybe the puppets that dangle from their strings
Sit and stare as the think up the most horrible things
Maybe even fairies are real
But they're so horrific they can't deal
...

She's Suffering My Dear...
A little girl of only 8
Who promised her mommies she'd never touch the blade
Her wrists are now pouring
Her visions are blurring
The promise was kept
Even as she sat in the bathroom and wept
Her sights had become to much
But she'd never do as such
These deep cuts began to appear
And her screams her mother did hear
Running to her angel's side
She saw the blood and nearly died
She quickly ran for some towels and the phone
She listened to the dial tone
When no one answered she threw the phone...

Alice and Cherry
"Shhh she'll hear us"
"She's a sleep don't be delirious"
These are the sounds young Alice hears
Its these voices she fears
Pulling up her satin covers
Hoping they're gentle lovers
"Has she gone mad yet?"
" Shh..we need her to repay a debt"
"Well at least part of her"
The voices giggle a little louder
Her mother and father told her
"Its just a nightmare dear girl"
It didn't seem to be a nightmare
To little Alice it seemed a horrific dare ...

I'm Sorry My Angel</3
Moon is high and bright
Giving me my only light
I can't wait for Moon to doze
Maybe she won't see me walk the path I chose
It pains me to wait
And I know its getting late
But still I stroke her dark hair
As her blue eyes peer at me with a tired stare
Moon misses her
"I need my storyteller"
She whispers as the lights get dimmer
Oh how I hope she remembers
There are a bunch of deaths lately
Its kept her so busy
Moon understands if you may
But its her mommy the mortician that keeps the...

The Hatter Walked Down the Street
The Hatter walked down the street
He was in search of Alice unaware who she'd meet
He'd lost her a few hours back
It was this time he regretting having to lack
They could've been to Wonderland by now
With some kind of talking cow
The Hatter looked left and right
But Alice just wasn't with in sight
He pondered on how he had lost her
But it seemed all a blur
They had been running for hours it seemed
It was still nothing like they'd dreamed
They sat down to rest up
Then these red cards showed up

The Z Word...
Its prom oh what a lovely day
The sun is out in the beautiful month of May
In our dresses we will surely hide
But either way we've got our converse laced and tied
Its amazing most would say
But we stick to the back far away
The "beautiful" people won't see our gaze
They're to caught up in their "perfect" haze
We'll stick to this wall
Hardly seen at all
We'll talk a little
Maybe secretly sing a little..
Either way
No one will see us in this decently lit hide away

Dear Girl,
Dear girl,
I once was beautiful
With a dress of black lace
And dark blue ribbons
Tied in my hair
Stored high on a store shelf
I smiled all day
As children passed wishing to play
Once denied by their parents they'd sulk away
This bothered me so
Created to serve but one purpose
To put a smile on the face of every child
I began to loose hope
As each day seemed to prove my failure
Still with all my beauty
The store keeper decided to move me
I was now hidden
From the eyes of each small child
They'd...

Is Your Name Alice?!
My head is a daze
Everything seems like a haze
"Alice! Alice!
Is your name Alice?!"
An unformilar voice calls
"You had a terrible fall
Can you hear me Alice?
Where's your hatter Alice?"
I finally see the man questioning me
"Who must you be?"
I ask reluctantly
"I'm your White Rabbit I've been waiting patiently"
"Where's the hatter?"
I ask thinking something must be the matter
"I haven't a clue..
I thought I'd ask you
Here come with me ...

Your Voodoo Doll
I once was beautiful
Stored high on a store shelf
I smiled all day
As children passed wishing to play
Then one day you saw me
And a smirk came across your face
You pulled me into you arms
And begged your mommy to buy me
I loved you that much I knew
From the first time I saw you
Once we had gotten to my new home
You and I played day and night
You whispered your secrets without a fright
But one day you went out
For the first time you left me on your self
I waited all day for you to come home
Then...

Hatter What's Happening?
"Hatter! Hatter"
Alice repeatidly scream
"My dear Hatter why have you left me?"
Confused and scared
Unaware of where she may be
Alice runs down the twisting white halls
Her voice echos
Along with the ticking clocks
Then suddenly.... they stop
She skids to a stop falling to the floor
"Hater, what's happening?
Why have you left me?"
She jumps to her feet and dusts herself off
Looking every which way
Then a noise she hears
Foot steps, running towarde dear Alice
Loaded...

The Hatter With Horns
The hatter with horns
Made his dear Alice a promise
"Wonderland my dear
We'll take you there
You'll never have another fear"
He pulled his Alice close
"Come on dear just run
To the rabbit hole you know?
No papers
And no signatures
Just grab my hand and I'll guide the way"
"I doubt a little trip
Down a rabbit hole will cure me
Of all the pain she left me.."
I disagree with my simple friend
Tick tock, tick. tock.
Tick..tock.., tick...tock...
The clocks around so ...

Maybe?
Maybe I'll just drift into the pain and tears
Maybe these demons' fingers won't burn to bad
Maybe the red eyes glowing in the closet will go green
Maybe the whispers under my bed will dull
Maybe the spiders over head will hult
Maybe my heart could manage to find one last beat
Maybe the face that's everywhere will fade into my fear
Maybe this blood will stop pouring
Maybe the dark will become deep shades of blue and gray
Maybe this misery won't feel like her knife....
