I looked through
the window of Alice’s
eyes…
“I have alluded many times to my perception of the world as an irrational place, run by a house of cards, led by irrational, or inept monarchs, whose followers, dodos, lories, eaglets and mice, make little sense, and a Cheshire cat who observes all from above, doing little to help.
Swimming in a sea of tears, is hardly an answer, in a place where you can be injured, if you aren’t careful, by anything you eat or drink. Does it all sound familiar? It’s called Wonderland, but you can call it any place you wish.”
