Only His Hat
Reese P 2000 (new york)
There he stands hat as tall as a skyscraper,
We call him monopoly man because of his hat,
He doesn't talk much but he doesn't need to, his hat says it for him
Dark as coal but shines like a diamond,
You assume the best,
Hat as high as the clouds, yet he seems so small,
Only noticing the hat, never the emptiness of his face,
Only the hat, never the fidgeting of his hands,
Just the hat, never the strain in his eyes,
