Gossips' Tongue
.
If you're some kind
of a celebrity
or one endowed with
notoriety,
not a few newshounds
want very badly
to crash and barge
into your privacy.
They can launch anytime
their invasion;
no, they don't need
your kind invitation.
They'll publish secrets
from your diary
and show soggy details
of your laundry.
Then their public reports,
spoken or sung,
melt as hard candy
on the gossip's tongue!
