11:40pm

'I like your hat.’

He said,

Leaning out of a car

What's in a hat?

An innocuous comment?

My body is in my hat

My mind is in my hat

My hat moves

When I check to see

If I'm alone on the street,

Because there's two of them

And my hat, and me

Maybe he did just like my hat

I like it too
