Paper Hat Float!

I love this 4 cornered plot
It contains more than a lot.
From the very first angle
It longs to contain
equality in the main.

However it’s clever and choses sides
to develop more than what provides.
Wear it with a slant and others will follow
No matter what’s contained in the hollow.

You will be followed no matter what you do.
Ducks are some but geese the few.
Make a statement that sets you apart.
Then follow your followers to the start
of a new age that encompasses all
to the swinging door at the end of the hall.
Show them all how to wash their hands.
In front of a thousand mirrors playing countless bands.

But don’t lose your hat as you’re slapped on the back.
Just slap another and pass the hat
that will spread out to 4 corners again
and sink into oblivion
unless it rests under all currents
and becomes one body of transparents.
