The shirt is from a lovely song by Seanan McGuire, who not only writes excellent books, she sings and writes songs, too. There’s even a stanza of the song with my name in it:
Alice got lost, and I guess that we really can't blame her; They say she got tangled and tied in the lies that became her. They say she went mad, and she never complained, For there's peace of a kind in a life unconstrained. She gives Cheshire kisses, she's easy with white rabbit smiles, And she'll never be free, but she's won herself safe for a while.
That works for me.
The full lyrics for “Wicked Girls” are on her website, and there’s a performance of it on YouTube.
