Curse 2

A sender of shock waves, Recipient to unable to remain brave Days on end, the worst expecting Week after week, comforting words ignoring, For those who had their sources wronged On them inflicting so much pain that people thronged; The guiltless ones readily taking the matter up, A notification of persons with whom they sup, Every one of them prepared to a suit file Against his attacker who‘d gone to such a mile: Vulnerable as even the innocent is To the malevolence of a curse The great chances of this Unfailingly drying his purse. This, though, a country side anxiety is, Most urbanites ready to all curses kiss; For being a mere outburst of the furious Absolutely sure they aren’t injurious… But on their contents, I set much store To their intents glimpsing some claw, Not at all eroded my unscientific fears That cursing lips are a lot more than voiced tears Not just a verbal the social man could safely swallow As being just an enemy’s chosen “hello”.
