have I forgotten

the customs of my family,

those sturdy trees,

planted in,

well-watered,

fed?

What has led me to leave them

 so far from me, and to stay away?

Trumped, the Red Queen

could be mean.

She blames her big head

instead of her small mind.

She's the kind of woman warped by lies.

She donned kingswear, but her he is trumped too

and hasn't any clothes

to cover them.

why, he, a parvenu,

accuses you

of possessing,

for example,

qualities, conditions

often presumed characteristic of

ignorance, unripeness, a too niceness.

However.

Realise not knowing,

being unaware,

aren't arbiters of

anything.

Of the unknown transformed into this -

a woman can remain

misunderstood.

I favor verbs of being over pronouns -

Is, am, are enough.
