Gossip
                Hurtful    Ignorant
     Damaging, Long-lasting, Defeating
 Sad, Despondent, Depressed, Unhappy

Spot on, Caren. Gossip + people more inclined to believe lies than truth = destruction of the targeted one's character and reputation. Sad. Have a great weekend my friend. :) ~ Artsie

Truly, gossip leads to needless pain. Wish we could all learn to keep hurtful comments to ourselves. An important cinquain that serves as a good reminder, Caren! Hugs, carolyn

Some people have to talk about others to hide their own ignorance and hateful personality. Nice piece.

Thank you; I was reminded today by five elementary school children that gossip hurts so many, yet is still being taught in the homes of many confused, ignorant parents.
