Spoken
Chinese whispers
From forked tongues are born
They fly like poison darts
Leaving damage in their wake
Lives destroyed, reputations shattered
Families broken,
Sticks and stones would hurt far less
Than whispered words, hardly spoken
I know these darts I feel their poison
My back a road map
To whispered words hardly spoken…
Great post 🙂

Pity help anyone with good intentions who gets into the public eye, the vultures will be circling for one sniff of weakness real or otherwise.
