I inhabit the small<\/p>\n
My small apartment, a little box that is my refuge<\/p>\n
From any and all monsters outside<\/p>\n
But not so small; I still check the closets when I come in<\/p>\n
To make sure no one is hiding.<\/p>\n
My small stature, I am not quite five feet tall<\/p>\n
Always in the front of the group photo<\/p>\n
But not always seen over the counter<\/p>\n
People apologize but I see right through them<\/p>\n
When they claim they could not see me.<\/p>\n
My small life, driven by design<\/p>\n
To contract rather than expand<\/p>\n
Staring up into a world out of my reach<\/p>\n
I am Alice after the potion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
