Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

Chloe Murphy

wandering

eyes               still

 

order                                          once more

 

suppressed                            the air

with the distant sobs of

 

Wonderland

 

closed eyes,

to open them

would               dull

 

the rattling teacups

and the          shrill cries

 

change

 

would take                place

 

a grown woman;

 

she would

 

gather

 

the dream of Wonderland                and

 

feel           a         simple sorrow

 

in                             remembering

Editors for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland not yet setup.

New Beginnings is our third and final volume of 2020. It is also our longest yet, with close to 100 pieces having been sent in for review from over 80 writers. Additionally, this volume marks a step towards making our initiative even more inclusive, having opened submissions for art and photography, too.

2021 may not be the new beginning for which we are all hoping. In fact, it is likely that the world will stay largely the same. However, that doesn’t stop us doing what we can to make it a little better. In supporting and being involved in an initiative whose primary motivation is to build one another up, our team and readership have certainly proven to be committed to making positive change already.
