Gossips

As if to spy upon some rapt adjourn more devellish than their own ~ existing for the slug of virtue from some forgotten dream Their aim ~ outdated with resent yet stealthy earned. Their ears, like prodding volts reversed to bring return. Life's focus ~ now forgotten with its yearn, seeking noticed space that all but clutters . . . nothings scorn!

Sometimes I forget how nasty those rotten grapes can be. They can hurt you; "existing for the slug of virtue." Our image and deeds can seem virtuous until gossip takes aim.
