It’s the hat
that first catches their attention.
Who wears hats these days,
but cowboys and teen punks?
and the punks have it backwards.
Her round little hat hasn’t enough brim
to keep off much sun,
but it has enough character to keep off
the bores and the introverts,
and that’s enough.
She doesn’t seem to notice them
drawing into the walls as she goes by,
their fear is palpable, but she is insensible.
It’s not outwardly a power hat, in fact, it’s kind of cute,
but no one wears hats these days who doesn’t wear
a confidence that scares off
weaker souls.

I’m a hat person. Always have been. I have a couple closets full, mostly ball caps, but some other good ones, too.
Do you know Goorin Bros? They make amazing hats.
Love it. I’ve recently gotten into hats in a big way!
Me, too. 😉
Funny how people look at you?
Let’s hear it for the ladies who wear hats! I have worn them for years…..still do. When I was in the Peace Corps, my nickname among the other volunteers was “Klobuk,” that means “the hat.”

Take it from one who knows. Hats are cool. Except of course ball caps.
You have great hats, Sean! 🙂
Hey, yeah hats are cool! I have a few myself, and wear them proud.
Good girl!
