Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

When Dumb Folk Hear Rumours

Dumb people hear rumours and go all out attack 
Clever folk hear them and want extra facts 
The Dumb come at you firing accusations 
The Clever come at you asking questions 

So quick to jump to a full gone conclusion
when only one outcome is there for the choosing 
When you hear gossip you allow its digestion 
It gives you the knowledge and you’re now interesting 

Getting involved to be apart of the drama 
who cares about those you are causing trauma 
just for this moment you can chitter chatter 
feeling most flattered that you finally matter

Dumb people hear rumours and want to believe them 
the version of you their desperately needing 
a story of failure so far from succeeding 
it tells you that they live with bitterness breeding 

Maybe they’re no one and never get notice 
and it leaves them feeling forever hopeless 
this is their victory your failure their focus 
their still bloody nobody living life hopeless
