Alice Took The Right Turn

Happy happy, sing sing.
It’s never as simple
as the simplicity of yesterday.
You see through your eyes
Those pretty, betraying lies.
But your heart and mind?
They see the murderous truths

Sing for me; sing a melody
Smile for me; if only to brighten my day
Hold me close and laugh with me
Only to break down the glacier of Not Now.

Depths and measures of words on your tongue;
You’re blind with what is made rather than how.

This is pointless, I’ll tell you right now.
I’ll tell you straight that you’re just a lie.
Your friends are a lie, your life is a lie.

Open your heart . . . open your mind.
Fall down the rabbit hole to see the truth.

Not everything is what is seems to be . . .
