hat

Description

A hat is a head ornament that both shields one from prying eyes and secretly flaunts inner anxieties. Once donned, it declares the wearer’s personality and its contradictions in unison, yet when the wind blows, it mercilessly exposes its true worth. Boasting unwavering utility in sun or rain, it is promptly exiled to a dusty shelf when its purpose is questioned. Sometimes a shield, sometimes a mere frivolous accessory.

Definitions

• A head-specific camouflage that exquisitely conceals the gap between appearance and reality.
• A capricious device of self-expression that shifts with seasons and moods.
• A little crown that sometimes serves as a shield and other times as a social passport.
• A fusion of fabric and coin that generates psychological comfort far more than functional value.
• A litmus test of self-deception that teaches cruel truths each time it flies away in the wind.
• A symbol of dignity that crowns the head, provoking both admiration and prejudice simultaneously.
• A contrived comfort product that physically covers invisible anxieties.
• A two-faced entity that exists for decoration but occasionally reminds you of its protective functions.
• A subject within a subject, wholly at the mercy of seasons and fashion trends.
• A tool proclaiming one’s status while simultaneously illuminating contradictions of identity.
