Mad Hatter
So what if I’m crazy?
I think it's fun.
I see the noises
And taste the colors.
u p
I j m across rooftops,
And shimmy down pipes.
Well yeah,
I’ve got a few loose screws.
But yah need to . . .ahhh…. l oo se n UP,
Or life won't have a certain…
Pazzaz!
I am my own crazy,
Different from the average psychopath or sociopath.
I don’t plan murders in my head,
Or acts of terror.
Instead I think of…
Slamming into walls,
How to break out of a locked room
If someone were ever sent to kill me.
Or tumbling over fences,
And how to interrogate someone
With a tooth pick.
So what if I’m crazy?
The best people are!
I find that my mental situation increases my humor
Heightens my thought process
And even improves my writing.
But I guess that it might seem CrAZy,
Or just downright InSaNE!
But hey,
My thinking is an acquired taste.
Don’t try to play crazy with me,
I’m better at it.

Alright, so I wrote this free verse to depict the crazier side of my personality. Yes, some of these thoughts may be alarming. But I swear to God that I am not a psychopath. I just use their thought process to enhance my writing. And it started out as a challenge and evolved into an addiction. So maybe I have turned into a psychopath--AnYwAy, I have the format jump around to represent a crazy person’s thought process. And then, I don’t know if you can tell, but I put in some spaces to create verses of elevens. I did some research(meaning I googled It) and eleven means chaos. And finally, I add in some allusions of Melanie Martinez’s “Mad Hatter” lyrics. I included her lyrics because I just love her music, for one, and “Mad Hatter” just really puts the way I think into words. It’s either her, Deadpool, or the Joker. Oh
and of course, I just had to include a Joker quote in the last two lines. It was the cherry on top of the stick of dynamite. Boom.
