As humans we wear many a hat

I’m sure you are aware of that

Sometimes the hat of courage

Sometimes the hat of rage

At times we wear the hat of success

At times we wear the hat of distress

We feel a hat can hide our tears

Cover and camouflage our fears

Yet no matter what hat we wear

Our own mind we still have to bear

It’s a case of mind over matter

If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter

But have you ever wondered what the hat felt?

About the mind over which it so gaily dwelt?

It’s a case of matter over mind

It doesn’t matter if you don’t mind
