Has the Mad Hatter Gone

The hard rumor followed me out the door
Down the hill and past the grapefruit store
I could not believe it, was it forevermore?
The rumor said mad hatter had left for summer shore.

What about his cat? Asked one who loved gore.
Is it okay? Did a raven eat it up past its core?
The cat is fine, said my uncle Livermore.
The rumor has no merit, it is insane folklore.
