A Rumour

What an amazing small muscle called a tongue. How influential it can be once it claims what has been Which then makes that rumour in society to be a plague That is easily accepted by those who have not seen. A tongue can be so creative in giving various version Of news and events grounded on reality. Of course, giving a description away from the true vision Of facts and phenomena based on actuality. How gossip mongers are so quick to make news spread, And cause nothingness into something with profound impact. Especially to the lazy, ignorant, weak minded and unread, Who helplessly listen to hearsay without viewing real fact. Eventually a rumour is proven to be fake And people realize that their perception was a mistake.
