If mad is a hatter then mad am I <br />We'll riddle a needle to that of an eye <br />Make monkeys purple and rabbits fly <br />Then when one of the 'sane' asks us why <br /> <br />We'll laugh like two loons and ask why not <br />Our minds be long gone we'll fight sane thought <br />And invent new words like drot and haggot <br />Laughing like Trisels, madness is naught <br /> <br />To befriend a hatter is quite benign <br />Especially when you've lost your mind <br />And all of your thoughts become entwined <br />You yourself then laugh when maligned <br /> <br />I won't ever lie, you must understand <br />Or this purple penguin will bite off my hand <br />Then I couldn't drink the best tea of the land <br />And this tea I tell you is simply quite grand <br /> <br />People think us foolish, demented, disturbed <br />But I find it quite moronic and even absurd <br />They don't know any of the things that I've heard <br />And a hatter can teach you much more then I've leard <br /> <br />And a hatter's knowledge is rather quite open <br />And then when you've come fully ready listen <br />Careful to leard our knowledge 'cause when <br />You come over the hill you can't go back again<br /><br />Zachary Clark<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-mad-is-a-hatter-then-mad-am-i/
