Bette Bavington Poet Villanelle

Dirty Laundry Doesn'T Go On Facebook

You've been told.
Dirty laundry doesn't go on Facebook especially if
You don't want to get caught.
This was cold 
By a thousandfold
You two blocked a family member from a family
Function. Then when confronted lied and tired to
Cover it up as an afterthought.
You've been told
Running your mouth about family and friends on
The internet will get you scolded.
You got what you sought.
This was cold
Your souls to the devil you sold.
When you took time from a family member who
Suddenly died and the person you blackballed
Is over wrought.
You've been told
Family is more precious than gold.
The sad part is you guys now have lost all of
Your family on this stupid plot.
This was cold
There is no way for her to be cajoled.
You both are filled with dry rot.
You've been told.
This was cold.

Andrea Dietrich December 21, 2018 at 7:37 PM wow, the title drew me in and I really enjoyed the read. Such CADS people can be!! Bette Bavington December 21, 2018 at 8:16 PM Yes, Andrea these two were. This was a total surprise. What was even worse was when these two cads were at the family members memorial service and they started in on the person who had caught them in their lies. They actually wanted to beat her up. They were disrupting and upsetting the people who were there. They were only mad because they got caught. It was horrible. I don't think they have learned their lesson either which makes it even worse. I hope you and yours have a great Merry Christmas. Thank you for the visit.
