An Imaginary Alice

Perhaps intangible things are

like our conception of a star;

objects far away and too hot

which we don’t think about a lot.

But, poets and philosophers

live lives full of awes and wonders.

We cannot touch but we can feel

what imagination makes real.

So twinkle up there in the sky

while imagination and i

conspire to have a lot of fun

and astonish everyone.

Somewhere deep in a rabbit hole

poets can play a stellar role.
