Cycles in Awe Project: Prototype Two

My work in progress!

I mentioned at the bottom of this post how I changed my poetry format from my original ideas to a roundel poem. I would like to do maybe three poems (one for each book I'm studying) that incorporate the ideas I'll be discussing in my final paper (cycles of awe). I'm not sure this is working the way I want, or where to take it next. The poem has not been edited yet, but here is my first draft for the first poem about Alice visiting Wonderland. Let me know what you think. I'm hoping the poem talking about Alice cycling back to Wonderland, which ultimately leads to her becoming self aware, can be like the Dancing Dissertation videos we watched; the poem should be a small representation of what my paper discusses, just as the dancing dissertations tried to tell the main ideas of the dissertation.

Cycle One

Is it a wonder? She calls it Wonderland.
Curious and enthralled she wanders under
spells of caterpillar "who's?," Cheshire "where's?." And
is it a wonder

that one so young would cycle back to plunder
the cakes, rich teas, red queens, strange things odd yet grand?
She goes for fun but finds herself asunder;

madness would split her self in half. Yet she stands
anew. Sane. Tolerant. Aware. Her blunders
from asking "who I am" she can now withstand.
Is it a wonder?
