Red Queen💊
I toss and play
with the softness of
bluish that unravels
while I chase
losing itself among
the bed clothes
where I burrow and
follow
like Alice tumbling
into darkness
through
an endless tunnel
leaving bottles
in a row
with their red queen
to behead me
keeping guard
in a nightstand
reflection
in the water glass
handfuls of
nightmare in an
oil-slick rainbow
whose mythic pot
recedes
until at last
I reach where I
can drink the
shrinking potion
