…as a hatter
daydreams
rollicking mirth
could hint that one is mad
for believing utopias
exist

It is such a positive hopeful little poem; necessary given the state of the world. (That is crazy) So, yes, stay mad, and keep believing, mirthfully.

A poem I wrote at the age of 16:
I am mad
but I am glad
I am not sad
I’m happy!
