Gossip

Joseph M Marion

My name is gossip .
I live at every level of society, I have no respect for justice of any civilization,I mime without killing, I am cunning malicious and gather strength with age, I know no boundaries, the more I am quoted the more damage I do, I flourish at every level of society, to stop me is impossible I have no face and no name, the more I am spoken the more damage I do, I am nobody's friend once I tarnish a reputation they'er  never the same no matter how hard they try, I ruined people lives, and in every part of governments at highest level, I ruined nation,caused wars,ruined marriages,careers,I cause sleepless nights, make people vomit, and sick with grief, I make the innocent cry in their pillows at night, and even cause some of them to commit suicide in my name those are the wars I win, and every time the word "gossip" is spoken you can hear the ss in the very word gossip like a venomous snake waiting to strike,
My name is gossip I'm strongest most elusive no one can stop me in any part of life anywhere.
