I'll show you (how deep the rabbit hole goes)(alternative version with slightly different meaning)

5 in the morning
still not asleep
my blinks get longer
and longer

and then i fall

down the rabbit hole
Am I too late?
sweet dark continuity, down it goes
And then i think

and i think more

down the tunnel
that i fell down
many times before
why do i feel so small?

and there were boxes
labeled "knowledge"
and they jumped around like hoppers
and the boxes were wrapped in a tape that was known as the preconceived notion

they are floating

and i know I'm coming near some end
or something different
my human boredom creeping up on me
and i see a watch

my face is in the watch

it's screaming
pushing up against the glass to escape
and it's falling with me
down the rabbit hole

Down the rabitt hole we go
where everything make sense
And nothing does
and everything is micro

and everything is macro

are you willing to see the answers?
are you ready?
take my right hand to hold on tight as we fall
or will you climb up a wall?

how badly do you want to know?

Another reality
one that's different
where nothing is possible
and nothing is everything

Will you follow my mysteries? Because i can show you, how deep the rabbit hole really goes




(there is a reference to a graphite drawing by a local high school student, currently on exhibit at their school within the poem. the name of the drawing is "tripped in time")

I'll Show You(how deep the rabbit hole goes)

5 in the morning
still not asleep
my blinks get longer
and longer

and then i fall

down the rabbit hole
Am I too late?
sweet dark continuity, down it goes
And then i think

and i think more

does it really need to end?
is there a bottom to this rabbit hole?
will the centripetal force of the earth keep me from the mantel?
Why do i have to wait for an answer?

i see a light bulb

and another
and another
and yes one more
how they glow!

they are floating

and i know I'm coming near some end
or something different
my human boredom creeping up on me
and i see a watch

my face is in the watch

it's screaming
pushing up against the glass to escape
and it's falling with me
down the rabbit hole

will you follow me till i find my answers? down the rabbit hole evermore?

or will you wake up to a world what's familiar,
the smell of coffee and fumes
and the burn of a fiery center
with threat of utter doom

Will you follow my heart?

what a window to see through
what dimensions of another
time squared? area^4th power?


Will you follow my mysteries? Because i can show you, how deep the rabbit hole really goes










(added note, this was written at 5 am, don't expect me to explain the meaning)
