How will you discover
What’s hidden underground?
Like whether Tweedeldee and Dum
Are really thin or round.
How will you discover
What’s hiding underneath?
Like why the Cheshire Cat
Always grins and bears its teeth.
How will you discover
What lies beneath the air?
Like the clatters and the clashes
Of the Hatter and the Hare.
How will you discover
What resides beneath your wheels?
As the Duchess says her morals
And the young pig baby squeals.
How will you discover
What’s underneath your bed?
You’re fast asleep when the queen of hearts
Screams “OFF WITH ALL YOUR HEADS!”
How will you discover
What’s below your normal life?
Like the giant bluish caterpillar
As she plays her bluish pipe.
How will you discover
What’s underneath your yard?
The workers that you fail to see
As more than just some cards.
How will you discover
How will you ever know?
If you don’t chase the rabbit
And fall down the rabbit hole.

Good try here, I like the storytelling aspect of it and the rhyme is very nice.
