Tea-Party Memories
Wonderland Challenge day 29 "Tea Party"
Tea parties and tutus
Transformed to
Drunken dormouse echoes
On the perpetually set table
Of a forgotten spring
Spread with china teapots spouting
Fountains of guilt
Over a feast of bread and
Buttered time
Splashing on the trembling heads of
Hares, lapping up the
Bare ambitions lifting me
Heavenward in the blink of
The spotlight’s eye
Burning holes in the
Stage set for lunch
I dominate, reciting every
Known and unknown
Mistake
Twirling on a line of
Secret laws and
Death threats spun to
Silken thread
