3.1.2022 No One is Coming to Save Me

Alice, you’re calling to me

Little white rabbits all around

Begging, motioning, telling me to follow

My feet might be planted on this little blue planet

But my head is in the clouds

Seeking desperately a rhyme, a reason to all this madness, all this global sadness

What’s behind that daunting wall

Why don’t I care if I fall

Upside down all turned around

I want to know the unknown

I want to explore the unexplored

You found your Mad Hatter

The only one who truly understood

Encouraged you to be you in all your too muchness

Told you to rise up and slay, save the day

All the men before weren’t enough

They’re not meant for me

I don’t want a semi-lived life

Domestic bliss as someone’s wife

I want stories; fabled glories

Archetypes and saints calling to me

Leaving behind all these tears and fears

No one is coming to save me

Time to recognize I’m more than all this sadness

Time for me to rise and embrace all this sweet madness

Free falling into this glorious rabbit hole…
