 A List of Famous Hats   -after James TateI knew a guy who believed hats evolved to fulfill a function,Purely utilitarian, nothing to do with fashion He further claimed that some hatsWere originally designed to fit the misshapenCranium of some poor soulWho needed to get out of the houseWithout a million wiseguys gawking At his unfortunate deformityThe first pope hat, in fact, was designed for a literal inbred coneheadNapoleon ' s tricorne monstrosity was originally crafted by a nun For a poor orphan girl with skull dominant acromegaly Fascinator hats were godsendsFor self conscious microencephalicsAnd let me introduce to you to Ahmed,Proud inventor of the fez!Pay no mind toHis pail shaped headBut then for some strange reasonRegular headed people found them Fiendishly chic Suddenly everyone had to have oneBefore long we all forgot whatThey ’d been engineered to hide Stopped wondering why there was All that empty space inside1/26/23
