Gossip

Strap on in and let’s begin It’s the nature of the game It’s not a story or a tale But important just the same It makes a sound in every town As it echoes through your streets It’s on the lips of all your friends And everyone you meet Its cuts you down with every sound It wants to ruin your day It only wants to tare you up The gossips come to stay So spread the word “That’s what I heard” And don’t forget your part So you can take another stab And aim right for their heart

You bit the bullet in this poem with the topic of gossip. Gossip does spread, much like a cancer in the body - a weird simile, I know...but I'm trying to put my point across. Ah, what an epic verse from you again.
