Today I became Alice. I took a nap in the sun at the bottom of my dead hydrangea garden, lulled to sleep by the sound of a lost bumblebee.
I woke up at 6pm, with the sun setting in the background. Groggy eyed I met with the stare of the neighborhood cat. I got up, grabbed my blanket and it followed. We had tea.
A few days back I discovered a hill in the middle of my neighborhood. It overlooks the city and my quiet little suburb. I felt like I was in the countryside looking down on gray human monstrosities.
Before the hill I discovered a cherry blossom garden with a brick castle behind it. It was tucked in behind some bushes and stones. My friend, the Queen of Hearts, had been with me at the time. She'd come for a day visit and we decided to tour the town. As usual we'd talk about the game. I don't care much for the game anymore, although I like to glance occasionally at the deal. I might play when I get a good hand.
For now I've got my hands full chasing a white rabbit.
