Alice in Wonderland Haiku

I chose Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll specifically as the first text for Poesytron to "read-through." Because there are so many nonsensical elements in the novel, and Poesytron often produces nonsense, it seemed like a perfect fit.  Also, Alice is in the public domain, so the text is available for free on Project Gutenberg.


Raised difficulty--
butter leaves presents fighting.
Music wouldn’t save.


Footmen followed, used
longway, wondered aloud. Learn
ancient, belong rapped.


Nose minded driest.
Breath velvet leaning ledge state.
Impatiently leave.
