Alice in Wonderland
Location
One day I slipped down a rabbit hole,
I decided to stay.
I made cute rhymes,
made time pass every day.
I took A.P english at tea time with Mad Hatter,
sat with a mouse, a dog, and a funny looking cat, chatter.
I practiced here and there,
like Dr. Seuss I did it everywhere.
I practiced at school on a stool,
and wrote poems in my room with a broom.
But I don't need green eggs and ham,
just directionless moods.
I follow the flow,
I'm like the Chesire with no where to go,
I'm open to all the roads.
So I walked and followed that toothy big grin,
it led me to a college named Rutgers
where I read in front of my Kin.
A day or two before the event I was flying,
my teacher told me,
"Write a poem, it won't hurt to try it."
I got honorable mention, that's second place,
they gave me a certificate, and took pictures of my face.
I heard I beat thousands,
not hundreds,
plenty of schools,
most likely really funded
with students sitting back,
confounded.
I'm no artist, I just write what goes,
but I love it, it's me, I might write a book who knows?
