Dinner's A Chore

DINNER’S A CHORE

Dinner, my turn, nothing in the fridge
Off to market, be gone a smidge
Car won’t start, battery’s dead
Jump it, full steam ahead
Old gossips in the aisle, won’t move aside
‘Scuse me’ I croon, but they get snide
Right back I get crass
Suggest they kiss my ass

Gonifs and gossips revisited

Gonifs and gossips revisited

since originally being crafted
approximately half dozen
dirty deeds done dirt cheap years ago...

Abound and lurk
within every nook and cranny
analogous to some annoying pest
harmless though one reside here,
when off his meds goes berserk
here at Highland Manor Apartments.

They snatch and snitch packages -
meant for other than themselves -
think Grinch who stole Christmas
plus snoop, i.e. eavesdrop

Discouraging the Gossips and Rumormongers

I am confused by the rumors,
but give them no meaty merit
For I have not yet spoken to the source
I always go to the person and ask them if it is true

Please do not try to bother me
For I have learned the secrets of an instigator
When you say “I don’t know whether to tell you this”

gossips

My Grandmère and I have long, gossipy conversations,
where we fall into our own chatty, slumber party rhythms.

She’s met or knows everyone important, and people tell her things.

They DM her or whisper secrets of lives ordered but loveless,
of careers choked by excesses and indiscretions.

She gets stealthy, leaked business reports of purported fortunes gambled and lost or

Gossips mar the world
The great becomes insecure
Brat and war-monger.

Minding Other Peoples’ Affairs or Businesses

Minding other peoples’ affairs or businesses
Some villainous pundits or vile hyenas are the best
In simply doing just that, comrades. They ignore
Their own problems. They leave a huge door
Ajar, wide open, so they can put their flagitious nose
In their neighbors’ personal businesses or affairs
Please, always have the fireman’s water hose
Ready, in check and in full force

An Invisible Lock

Life is not that easy
As though an invisible lock
Has locked you up in an overcrowded jail
You have to live
Against the eyes of the public
To the expectations of the public
Against the wrong concepts of the public
To the judgement of the public
Against the gossips of the public
To the rumours of the public
There is little choice
Either
Retreat to a

Please Don'T Let Me Down

Once upon a time my heart murmured
I wouldn't listen to gossips
I wouldn't listen to fallacies
I wouldn't listen to rumours
And you please don't let me down
However
I'll lend a listening ear to
Only the truth and justice 
Amongst the honest people
At any corner of the world
I'll cock my ears to listen to
Only the truth and justice 
That's embedded

Gossips

Confined shoes 
Toes struggle
Toes gossip
Barefooted
Cross - legged
Toes tangled
Gossip too
Closed door
Round table 
Voted compromise
No gossips 
Open air 
Mouth gulps food
Mouth giggles 
Teeth gossip too

Gossips

We live to be the best and everyone really cares
Some are jealous but some feel it’s fair
No matter how good you are in your work
Some will feel bitter and stab you with their fork

We can’t please anyone because that’s what life is
But don’t lose opportunity so you won’t be missed.
Don’t even dare to stoop down

Gossips' Tongue

.



If you're some kind 
   of a celebrity
or one endowed with 
   notoriety,

not a few newshounds 
   want very badly 
to crash and barge 
   into your privacy.

They can launch anytime 
   their invasion;
no, they don't need 
   your kind invitation.

They'll publish secrets

Gossips

As if to spy upon
some rapt adjourn
more devellish
than their own ~
existing for the slug of virtue
from some forgotten dream

Their aim ~
outdated with resent
yet stealthy earned.
Their ears, like prodding volts
reversed to bring return.

Life's focus ~ now forgotten
with its yearn,
seeking noticed space
that all but clutters . . . 
     nothings
