Listen to poem:

Maelstrom

Mumbled murmurs emerge
Marooned rumblings wake up
Madcap mayhem threatens
Maelstrom rattles the room
Marred peace sinks in chaos
Moment secret is out
Mad how fast rumors spread

A creative view of maelstrom, and quite accurate. Rumors can cause a maelstrom. Congrats on your 3rd place win, John! Blessings, Kim
