Waiting for a Rabbit<\/strong><\/p>\n

This morning
\nI went on
\na rabbit hunt.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not what
\nyou think.
\nNo weapons
\nwere involved.<\/p>\n

I had a yen
\nto find
\na Rabbit Hole,
\nto drop into
\nWonderland.<\/p>\n

As I waited
\nfor a rabbit
\nto appear,
\nI got
\ncuriouser and
\ncuriouser.<\/p>\n

The dictionary
\ninsisted that
\na rabbit hole
\nis \u201cstrange,
\nconfusing,
\nillogical,
\ndifficult to
\nescape from.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what
\nyou get when
\nyou are trapped
\nin a dictionary
\nlooking for
\ndefinitions,<\/p>\n

when you
\nshould just
\nkeep looking
\nfor a rabbit.<\/p>\n

Go ask Alice.<\/p>\n
