Writer, motherfucker.

Write her, motherfucker

(Let it be known that I haven't seen Tim Burton's movie because the idea of him being able to create a third Alice book is horribly pretentious.)

"The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice. It looked good natured, she though: still it had very long claws and a great many teeth, so she felt that it ought to be treated with respect"
—From Alice's Adventures In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

A Cheshire Cat And I

Loved, you tried to dye your hair fire hydrant red, but
you are not a fireman.
If you were and I’d seen
that flop on your head, I would have been saved;
and, if you are, I cannot see that (or you).

What did it come out
as? Auburn? It does not matter.
I never saw it when I longed to—
You always fled with your sirens caterwauling,
He's mad! and, He's mad!

I was mad. (I am not, now.)
As curious as Alice, I agonised how
you knew that.
"You start fires," you said.
I started them

so you would know where I was in hopes
that you would come to and help me as you never did.
Wonderland was once everything to me,
but I cannot retreat to there, now.
Between smoky pyres—its fading memory—I see nothing.

This is not my funeral; I do not mourn; I was burnt, but I did not die.

You fucked up, bro.

Think: if you died, what would you have left behind you?

If it's any consolation, I quite like the poem o.o

>>850745
The contents of my bowels.

My cat. And that makes me sad.

don't get it

same here

This quote is stupid along with that picture. If you were a gladiator, even if you won you were still a slave that had just killed another slave and you would have to fight for your life again the next day.

Lions usually hunt at night.

If dyeing didnt mean the end, if instead it merely meant going off stage and changing costumes and coming back on as a different character, would you speed up your life or slow it down?

i thought i uploaded the gazelle one :|

all the motivators i have are from /fit/

This thread fails to deliver.

>>850764
I'd probably end it now so I could get a better outfit.

>>850811

That's pretty funny.

come on /lit/ i know there was a time where you had to meet a deadline which was very near and even though it seemed so impossible, you still managed to do it

I see it all perfectly; there are two possible situations - one can either do this or that. My honest opinion and my friendly advice is this: do it or do not do it - you will regret both.

>>850872

You'll usually regret the "not" most.

She always gets me motivated.

It takes Fight Club fans a full second to read a word?

>>850751
That's probably the saddest thought I've had on the topic of death. D:
