Sky high and sky fall by Grant Harbison

Alice and Lucy loved to get high

And soar through the bright diamond sky

Drift through strawberry fields free and unseen

Sink to new depths in a yellow submarine

Rise and run through Wonderland

Dance and sway to Sergeant Pepper’s band

Dancing with the walrus and the mad hat geek

In the land that had eight days in a week

But when the high got low and they had to get back

Reality would hit them with a vicious attack

Lying on the floor feeling the plight

The vicious comedown from a hard day’s night

They both felt the rumble of stomach punches

The inevitable craving for post high munchies

Alice looked at Lucy with a sparkle in her eye

And said, “How about rabbit stew and March hare pie?”
