Jealousy Hat

Jealousy wears many hats I have come to know. Some hats are bought, some are stolen and some are borrowed. They all come in a variety of colors of different shapes and sizes, being flaunted with emotional compromises. Anger is a hat I have seen jealousy don on many occasions. It’s a fire red derby with pointy spikes, a hellish sensation. Sorrow is another hat jealousy will wear time to time. It is a black top hat with a blue velvet line. There is a purple veil that conceals the eyes, a bewitching melancholic surprise.

Jealousy is unbecoming no matter what hat she chooses to wear. You have a very creative mind, Rebecca. John
