Loquacious Tiered-Hat [Rev]

Brilliant psychological insight - we hide behind glasses;
more-so behind sunglasses, & we have a hat for every
role we play - indicated by changing them for different
occasions; but I don’t conform to the norm when I wear
all my hats at once symbolising that all the personages
playing roles are present at the same time, listening in

To all conversations. First worn my second-hand army
hat, my in-pool crocodile-self hiding from a blazing sun,
then grey sunhat, wider brim for more shade with shiny
silver thread, a taste for shining things - & see-through
so I cover it with a gold straw hat, reminding of Ridcully,
ArchChancellor of Unseen University, wearing his army-


Knife-gadget-ensemble hat for a magic which changes
the world into a wonderful place; thus when this crocodile
runs out of the house to traverse the backyard’s nuclear
waste to the cool pool, I wear all 3 hats and sunglasses,
the hats symbolise ALL my roles are contained to keep
my family and friends entertained by imitating fake


Russian accents & authentic Cockney speech; ah ha, no
wonder they run away; I’ll talk to waiter & shop assistant,
they have to listen politely to all those loquacious three-
tiered-hat bores like me….
