My Oversized Hat Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I have a hat full of responsibilities
Wrapping around my head
Weighing heavily on my capabilities
Puncturing my human limits
With its multiple stings

Strings of responsibilities
Wraps around my brain
Stretching my capabilities
Weakening my capacity
With its heavy demands

Chains of obligations
Hangs from my neck
Overpowering my strength
Pulling me down
With their heavy load

A cage of responsibilities
Envelops my short life
Swallowing my freedom
Suffocating my time
With its noose
