Eaves Dropping

The silent whispers are heard afar, as though the words were neariy spoken . Carefully said ,what is foul and fair,though not aloud for sake of other ears. the secret words hoarded ,could be someday relived,by those who listened - strained at such . The covert is made open,seldom times it,s a trifle,many times what was said in the quiet or dark revealed ,was shocking,either to decency or conscience. Hence this gleaning sport,best fits a plot of intrigues and the arcane. For good is proudly made light ,save where it,s alter-kind greatly abounds.
