all hat, no cattle
conscripted by the tribalists
to lead them into battle
it’s ritualistic kayfabe
all hat, and no cattle
central casting faking
a shaking and a rattle
you suspend your disbelief for
all hat, and no cattle
all hat, and no cattle
you project and self own
with your unforced errors
and the policing of our tone
your prattle is a cudgel
instead of kindly words
all hat, and no cattle
is increasingly absurd
