Gossip

A whisper here, a snicker there What harm could it do? It's all good fun, there is no doubt Except when it's about you Be it skittering innuendo, Practiced subtle disguise No amount of goodness or truth Can outrun bald faced lies To guard one's tongue is quite a feat If you are often the kind To join in a cabal of callous deceit And possess a poisonous mind
