“A friend of mine, the most innocuous dreamer who ever lived, once set a forest on fire to see, as he said, if it would catch as easily as people said. The first ten times the experiment was a failure; but on the eleventh it succeeded all too well.”


- Charles Baudelaire, 'Paris Spleen'

 

 

 

 

 

The night breeze with the same soothing smell of lilies

 

 

Unchanged for hundreds of years. and he thought it's just another end of journey

What a soothing breeze. Just the feast and the dancing figures around the hall smells of rotten flesh, and gold

 

 

 

 

 

Nobleman's prostitution, and yet uncompared to a lily's charm

 


He has watched her for hours. Watching her watching him

 

 

As if he is an secret garden full of black lilies

 

 

 

 

 

But I am the fleeting dream guarding it. Don't you see? He whispered

 

 

 


 

Such a beautiful petal. I have seen it before. a petal like this...


 

 

 

 

 


dance. and when the music is there and it sounds this real

 

 

 


 

and. i'll be there (taking some) of your tender tragic and all yours.

 

 

 



 


A child touched the petal that fell gently

 


the same heart break. the same saddened expression

 

 




 

 

Such a beautiful lie. I have heard it before. a lie like this...

 


 


 

 


'Back to the soils, where you were born, and never come back to this world again...'

 

 

 

 




“Soupçonner qu'un rival est aimé est déjà bien cruel, mais se voir avouer en détail l'amour qu'il inspire à la femme qu'on adore est sans doute le comble des douleurs.”

- Julien Sorel, 'Le Rouge et le Noir'

 

 


 

Am I


Lost in time?

 

 

 

 

the self under the name of senses always kept her own frailty

he guarded her because her existence reminds of him in the depth of his emotions flesh and blood is still there awaken

 

 


 

 

timeless

 

 

 


 

he has always been tired of existing in both of their worlds

maybe another him imprisoned in that surface no longer willing to defend that broken tower

 

existing without shackles of time or is eternity is a promise to time herself?

 

he seeks for his own answer maybe its where beauty lays he sneers to himself

 


 

 

love and hate, both extremities of emotions held for what's real he worshiped her own philosophy

the perfect reflection stares back from the tiny scars of the mirroring surface

but it's not him inside the dead pupils of hers

 

 

 


'who are you? why inside these pupils I cannot find myself?'

'you and I, are existences inside the similar shell. and yet you and I, are not the same.'

 

 


 

he suddenly remembered, the memories were left inside that moment, which was forgiven

 


 

it was left there

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


yes, all were existing


 

she once wished she could smother all when the baby leaves grown

without blooming


 

why the heart strings were pulled, from blooming

 

to withering

 

 






memories and wishes









 

her mind still filled with illusions and silhouettes




















The Caucus Race and a Long Tale The sea of tears becomes crowded with other animals and birds that have been swept away by the rising waters. Alice and the other animals convene on the bank and the question among them is how to get dry again. The mouse gives them a very dry lecture on William the Conqueror. A Dodo decides that the best thing to dry them off would be a Caucus-Race, which consists of everyone running in a circle with no clear winner. Alice eventually frightens all the animals away, unwittingly, by talking about her (moderately ferocious) cat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

'I've told the Dandelion.' The lone petal smiled back.
Stepping off the swing blessed with whispers of Lilies, she wished to be somewhere else, someone else.

 

 

 

 

'Since the beginning of beginning, you were already the last of last.'

 

 

 

 

 




The Hatter's riddle The Mad Hatter explains to Alice that he and the March Hare are always having tea because, when he tried to sing for the Queen of Hearts at her celebration, she sentenced him to death for "murdering the time," but he escapes decapitation. In retaliation, Time (referred to as a "Him") halts himself in respect to the Hatter, keeping him and the March Hare stuck at 6:00 forever. As such, he exclaims "Tea Time!" at random occasions. The tea party, when Alice arrives, is characterized by switching places on the table at any given time, making short, personal remarks, asking unanswerable riddles and reciting nonsensical poetry, all of which eventually drive Alice away. He appears again as a witness at the Knave of Hearts' trial, where the Queen appears to recognize him as the singer she sentenced to death, and the King also cautions him not to be nervous "or I'll have you executed on the spot."

 

In the chapter "A Mad Tea Party", the Hatter asks a notable riddle: "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" When Alice gives up, the Hatter admits he does not have an answer himself.


 

 

 

 

 

Garden of forgetfulness whispers another tale


crimson spiral clock tower tolls twelve

gathering roses
collector of pieces of a puppet-play
scattered on the red carpet


dance hall. chess board and maze
black. white. black. white.

nowhere the sight of that broken knight

'No. We'll never meet a second time.'

'I am purified. I am sanctified. Every single night.'

Inside the fold of your dress

You'll find another piece of missing puzzle in the melody

Wings enchained to tenderness of a throne

by the waltz shaped spiderweb


Dance deeper into the castle of illusion
Three doors standing in the hall way
III, Red Queen slumbers in her gilded cage. Shh.
VI, inside the rusty cages whispers the papilionidae
XII, the Jester and his rainbow kissed circus
fingers tracing alone the frame, the breathing portrait smiled

'Where is that secret tarot you'll slip into my pocket?'

'With either key you'll find your way.
Through either door you'll surely return.'

that dream drifted into the place adored. far too much and quickly. never wanting to wake up
 

 That moment, I’m genuinely and relentlessly obsessed. imprisoned inside the castle with happiness

 

memories be found reclining languid and devastated inside my eyes, lingering inside nothing

 

 

discover a new land and allowing my heart to singularly, quietly. Kind of break

 

 

 

thinking about too many silently clashing and crashing shards of shades of shapes of everything

 

 

flowing downward into the erasing enclosure of pure madness

 

'HaPPy Unbirthday. My beloveD.'

 

 

 

flowing upwards into the bright blank absolution of pure time

 

 

 

into all the crushing beauty of tomorrow

 

 

 

it’s the search and seeking, the chase and promise and hope and wanting

 

 

 

The wagon goes deeply, instinctually, continually and still.

 

 

every taste bright and brave solitary and real gentle and genuine tremendous and true

 

 

To be there that moment, mean it always, taking care from the beginning moment, taking care endlessly, of no one else ever



resemblance blinks back in the other side of looking glass

fingertips that longing to touch

the story never gets told until another hundred years
can't lace the strings back to rose a second time


tap. tap. taping your heels

the celestral lock opens

'Good night. Tranquillity awaits on the carousel vanishes with every sunrise.'
