Impossible Things

What not many people realize, is Alice in Wonderland is genuinely based on Schizophrenia, psychosis, and people who have 'lost their mind'. There are several ways this poem can be read. How I read it, is not that you just speak about the movie. Also, because I know you - this piece seems to be to me, about overcoming an internal battle.

"Chosen One, be strong of heart
Remember you are no longer small,
Have courage to meet the terrible foe;
Courage to slay the Jabberwocky."

^This is the stanza that backs that up to me. This poem in general could be a summarization of Alice in Wonderland, but it's much deeper than that to me. The Jabberwocky can be portrayed as the problem or condition running through your mind that you need to kill.

"The battle is nigh, but is it real?
The Vorpal sword gleams purple steel.
Only one way to kill the beast.
Think, Alice!"

I feel like you left this on a cliffhanger, and it was brilliant. Not only does it, on the one side, let you wonder if Alice is going to win or die, but on the other side, it makes you wonder if the speaker is going to make it through their battle, and the last line is the decision of how, and/or when.

Great write.
