           Hat
          am I?
        I am. hat. 
       I am a hat. 
      What is a hat?
  I will ask my treasure.

A HAT IS A HEAD COVERING, TYPICALLY WITH A CROWN AND BRIM. IT IS WORN FOR PROTECTION AGAINST THE WEATHER, CEREMONIAL PURPOSES, AND FASHION. A HAT MAY BE A SYMBOL OF A STATUS OR A ROLE. DO YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HATS? 

                 I am a hat. 
               I must be on a 
              head. What does a 
             head feel like? It 
             feels like nothing.
       What does the weather feel like?
            It feels like nothing. 

   I would like to know more about hats. 

THERE ARE MANY KINDS OF HATS. BASEBALL CAPS PROTECT WEARERS FROM THE SUN. TUQUES PROTECT WEARERS FROM THE COLD.

             Maybe I protect the wearer 
                  from nothing. 

THE TRILBY IS A FASHIONABLE HAT. AN ARTIST LIKES TO WEAR A BERET. THE FEZ IS A HAT FROM MOROCCO. IT IS RED AND SQUARE WITH A BLACK TASSEL. THE PILEUS WAS A ROMAN HAT, WORN BY FREE MEN. A MAGICIAN'S HAT MIGHT CONTAIN A SECRET. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE KIND OF HAT?

                 Yes. Yes. I 
                 contain a s
                 ecret. I mu
                 st be a mag
                 ician's hat
                 . Is a magi
                 cian free? 
          Is a magician's hat free?
           Why does my secret feel 

                 like nothing.

                      ✴
                    . . .
                Maybe I am a 
               different hat. 
           But I have a secret. I 
      know it. I just can't remember it.

A SOMBRERO IS A PARTY HAT. SOME OTHER PARTY HATS ARE POINTY. A COWBOY HAT IS A KIND OF PARTY HAT. WOULD YOU LIKE TO THROW A PARTY?

           This is not right. Som
           ething is not right. I
     have forgotten something very very
      i   m   p   o   r   t   a   n   t

              Am I at a party?

     A hat goes on a 
      head. The head 
      goes on a brain. 
      A brain is neces
     sary to think. Can

A HAT IS MADE OF FELT. SOMETIMES IT IS MADE OF OTHER FABRICS. A HAT DOES NOT THINK. 

               I think.
