A very important date!

So, amazingly enough I have never watched the entire Disney version of Alice in Wonderland (gasp!) and in some small way, I think that actually adds to my anticipation of seeing Tim Burton's version that is coming out March 5th. No, I don't plan on spoiling it by watching Disney's version beforehand either.


I was driving around LA doing something and finally saw the first billboard. It gave me a similar feeling that I experienced when the "Where The Wild Things Are" billboards were all over town ..... Pure, child-like glee. I can't wait.

The Maiden ~ Audre Lorde

Once I was immortal beside an ocean
having the names of night
and the first men came
with sledges of fire
driving the sun.

I was brought forth in the moonpit of a virgin
condemned to light
to a dry world's endless mornings
sweeping the moon away
and wherever I fled
seeking a new road home
morning had harrowed the endless rivers
to nest in the dried out bed
of my mother sea.

Time drove the moon down to crescent
and they found me
mortal
beside a moon's crater
mouthing the ocean names of night.

Higher and Higher
