Wonderland


isolation curbs our primordial thoughts

survival dictates the rules

fight or flight enters the minds

betraying our lust for life,

from desert sands to sandy beaches

from frozen tundra to grassy plains,

we are there when doubts and

wondering are no longer popular;

cities and towns along the way

flourish or diminish in size as we

proliferate our species - the wild

animals seek refuge elsewhere

when humans come to town...

we are thoughtful and thoughtless in

our approach to life as we seek to

dominate our surroundings, and when

all the parties conclude we are left

will a handful of wonderland crumbs.
