Why I Write, Part x+222: Cadillacs and Funny Hats

Poetry is the thing that marks me out.
It is my Cadillac and other peoples' discomfort,
My pride and other peoples' shame.
I can throw it around, and play silly games.
I can throw it right into someone's face.

Poetry is a lot of things to a lot of people,
But to me, it's mainly my funny hat.
