By far, this is one of my first poems, it was going to be part of a "story of poems" for a game I used to love. 'Eh I was a really big fan of it, so I got some inspiration from things in my life to write about the story in the game. If you haven't played American Mcgee's Alice understand that it is a sequel to Alice in Wonderland. Alice's parents have been killed in a fire and she was the only survior. She soon went insane, and since you know Wonderland is in her mind, going insane has caused her childhood safe place to become a living nightmare. The game is really wicked and twisted, I reccomend it only if you like oddities and creepy tales of corruption. Oh yeah this poem is in the view of the Cheshire cat from the game who can be seen in my avatar, and also at this link. I very much fixed this up so it would be suitable, just in case you know.

I did not draw the art in the link, XD thought I would say that before someone explodes and goes OH MY YOU DIDN"T SAY THAT WASN'T YOURS. (I would hope noticing it wasn't mine was obvious though XD, I can not draw anywhere that good)

Deliver Us from This Evil
1-67 lines
It’s been so long since her long hair caressed my gentle face,
Now I feel that I’ve become a mangy disgrace.
I’ve gone to long without the pleasures of a hearty meal
To not be able to die… This is how it must truly feel.
Once upon a time this world was drenched in the finest of her dreams,
Now it has become a living nightmare by entire means.
My bare bone stomach longs for the taste of food
Maybe that is why I’ve been put in this unbreakable mood.
I still remember when it all began,
With just one drop of a grain of sand.
Alice had just arrived to take tea with her friends,
It was one of those bad habits, an unstoppable trend.
She asked me the way to the Mad Hatter’s house,
As I slowly wrapped my tail around her blouse.
She laughed aloud and patted my head,
It was then that I felt my heart become filled with dread.
I jumped back, and her eyes grew wide.
"Cheshire Cat what is wrong have you lost your pride?"
No I laughed, something just felt strange
I guess inside I began to feel deranged.
My grin grew wide as I rubbed against her chest,
It was always her that I always loved the best.
That was the last time I saw my dear Alice…
Now her heart has become filled with malice
To have your parents lost in a fire it must be hard,
It wasn’t her fault; she must have played the wrong card.
Ever since that day Wonderland has taken a turn for the worse,
Driving one way in the big black hearse.
My mind has taken its final leap,
And now it has fallen among the heap.
Those blasted symbols etched into my skin,
Oh, how I despise every single one of them.
No more tricks to play on the queen,
For her heart has turned distinctly mean.
Heads rolling all around,
Watch them tumble along the ground.
Off with his head,
Off with her head,
It doesn’t matter how or when,
She would do it to the closest of her kin.
Many hopeful children have made their journey here,
Standing proud without thoughts of fear.
Presents of the queens power,
Left on the land to cry and cower.
Sometimes they stumble upon my domain,
Their cries of suffering burn into my brain.
Their minds and souls I will surely grind.
For once they meet me, I count them as mine.
I will sit here and wait for the day of your return,
For on that day the wretched queen shall get her turn.
Your heart can truly save us from this mess,
Deliver us from this evil, so we may play among the rest.
In my paw I hold for you a white rose,
My eyes are astonished by its fleeing pose.
Today is my unbirthday,
And what a horrible one it has been.
Covered in the mockery of my own filthy sin.
