and laughs at Alice in her wildabeast Wonderland.

The terebinth tree fills the air
david Bennett

sand dunes and seagulls, yet listless like
Brenda Bruner
USA - Thu Aug 14 14:07:09 1997

And from every direction comes the pain
JoJo
USA - Sun Aug 17 01:04:25 1997
dripped silence before the howl

consumed completely in despair.

though the mask falls free in the heat flash crack of
George Christos
OH USA - Sat Sep 6 17:34:25 1997
of magnificent blue light against the sea of darkness,
caledonia
