Wonderland*TATTOO

A Poem by An owl on the moon
"

Some tattoos are on the skin... and some the soul…

"



Desolate*lithe*designs

with* marked *gossamer *stains

of *incandescent* rose blush*ink…

Shards *of *sunlit*shadowlands

soul’s *autograph* on *skin’s* fabric

imprint* in* Cheshire* effervescence…

Inked *Wonderland* mindscapes

a* smoked *symbol* panacea

in* a* world *with *no *maps…

Let *me* trace* your* skin

with* my* halcyon* fingers

drink* the* elixir* of *your *stained*lips…

Clever. Very clever Craig! In image, form, style, layout on the page. Reminds me of these books I read, the Splintered Series by A.G.Howard. Pulling all those Alice elements in, the dark, the light, the devious, mischievious lure of something different. Love your twist on this, making it your own. I like seeing an edgier side of you. :)

This extraorindary poem - accompanied by such a vivid graphic. inspires thought to move to another and way out part of space. Maybe its the asterisked highlights added to the words, perhaps sending the whole Wonderland into somewhere created by you that nobody but the invited can ever reach.
