A bottle that said Drink Me:
Bottle, your eyes- what's the difference?
I had a long draw and grew so high
I could mistake it for flying.
A sweet that said Eat Me:
A frosted cake, your kiss- who's to say
they are not one and the same?
I had taste, followed by a feast
and shrunk to a world where all
I wanted was more and more and more
A book that said Read Me:
Printed pages, the soft skin of your
body- pick and choose the finer points
but I read your body while you slept
fingered the fine printings of hairs
and pores, scars and steel muscles.
I studied- but there are things I have yet
left to learn. This is the story I read in
dreaming- the thing I yearn to study
the most.
A Queen that said not "Off with his
head", but a Queen that said:
"Take my heart, you have all of it
in exchange for your Wonders."
