HOW THE HAT?
by STEPHEN KARNAGHAN

There is the wilderness lay a hat …
in memory of …
of a time when …
but no more …
there were people you know …
there were people and dogs and trees …
yes, yes …
and music and painting …
it was all here …
it was all here …
art was to be the saviour of humanity …
art …
but it didn’t …
everything gone ..
and they knew it …
yet …
arrogant …
thinking they have to …
but no …
they wouldn’t …
oh they wouldn’t …
they would want to be paid …
money …
money …
people prayed to money …
yet it was powerful …
then one minute later …
one minute …
money was worthless …
you …
you …
praying to your phone …
do you not realize…
