I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date! With him. With them. The White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, and the King of Hearts. Benji, Ransom, and Dare. I met them in my darkest hour, somewhere between Razorblade Avenue and Benzos Lane. Jameson in hand, I stumbled down the rabbit hole to their magical stomping grounds after a run-in with the Cheshire Cat and his wicked potions. Concoctions that allowed me to see Wonderland for what it is—an ominously delightful place where anything is possible, normalcy is frowned upon, and madness reigns supreme. Something about it, about them, calls to my darkest desires, hence why I always come back. Part of me knows I should be afraid; they’re so… different. The type of different you only see on TV, in movies, and dreams… But I suppose that’s part of the appeal. I’ve always been an outsider myself, so while I may not be one of them and my relationships with each vary in strength, the more I tread these enigmatic grounds, the more free I feel, like I finally belong. Like I’m actually living rather than simply existing. Reality is a prison. Wonderland could be home. Who do I have to blow to stay here? **Please note, Come Hither, Dark Dreamer was previously released in 2022 as part of the Enigma Society multi-author collection. It was not been expanded.
