Or You Wouldn't Have Come Here



Laurie Anderson: Big Science


In that direction,
the Cat said,
waving its right paw round,
lives a Hatter:
and in that direction,

waving the other paw,
lives a March Hare.
Visit either you like:
they're both mad.

But I don't want to go
among mad people,

Alice remarked.
Oh, you can't help that,
said the Cat:
we're all mad here.
I'm mad. You're mad.

How do you know I'm mad?
said Alice.
You must be,
said the Cat,
or you wouldn't have come here.
--Lewis Carroll
