All you see
          Is lost but found
Make believe
          I dreamt the scene
Seen it once before
          Before i awoke
Am i awake?
          The looking glass is
Looking back
          At you
At me
          Is it sane to name it
Dementia?
          Or should it leave be?
Be it real if not
          Thought of
Thought or some such nonsense
          But it made some sense
Reflections lie
          Unless they tell
The truth
          Therefore
You must
          Create the fable
To teach
          Delusion of itself
NO WONDER SHE CHOSE WONDERLAND

I love the story of Alice and loved this poem, wonderful.

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
