My Own Sick Wonderland

The oceans are raging,

the tea-kettles chanting,

"Off with her head!"

"Off with her head!"

~*~*~*~*~*

The White Queen is weeping,

the Mad Hatter singing,

"Off with her head!"

"Off with her head!"

~*~*~*~*~*

My own sick Wonderland,

is coming to life.

Where blood covers the streets,

and insanity is nigh.

~*~*~*~*~*

For none are safe in my Wonderland,

because the Red Queen has risen.

Taking with her,

the souls of the damned.

~*~*~*~*~*

So for the time being,

while Alice is hanging.

They will be singing,

"Off with her head!"

"Off with her head!"

~*~*~*~*~*

And I'll just keep weeping.

for my voice is ringing,

"Off with my head!"

"Off with my head!"

This is the first I have on this site so far, being I joined today, but I think it's marvelous! I found it very creative. I haven't much to say about this piece merely because I cannot think of what to say! Bravo!

Hey dankmemelord here!

First things first, I love Alice in Wonderland!

This poem is wonderful. I found no corrections. You used a lot of literary devices such as imagery and repetition. It had a good rhythm. I also liked that you used punctuation which is not something I see often on this website. My favorite line was " The White Queen is weeping, the Mad Hatter singing,"Off with her head!""Off with her head!"

Overall, I loved your poem! I can't wait to read and review more of your work!

Goodbye, have a nice day!

Hey JustOneMorePoem! It's AshleyDashley here for a review!

First off I love Alice in Wonderland. It was cool to go though it, but yet this had a different meaning. At the end you say,

And I'll just keep weeping.

for my voice is ringing,

"Off with my head!"

"Off with my head!"


This describes your feelings pretty clearly. I feel for you and if you ever need to talk I'll listen. I see no grammar errors or punctuation errors so fabulous job on that! Overall I think that this poem was marvelous! You did a good job with the flow because it kept me reading and also the poem was not confusing. I got a good visual as I read this too. Magnificent job and keep up the great work and I hope to read more of your work in the future!

Alice in Wonderland has always been a part of me while growing up. So, for sailing me through your wonderland, I'd like to thank you. It was amazing.



We always talk about the "doers" and "dreamers" but I'd like to give a big shoutout to the "tryers".
