over the FENCE

Pearcemelville 兎敏

 

Truths relayed over fences
develop a life of their own 
They suck life from the social dimension of a lady they used to call a friend

Shared with an adjacent street, a block of flats, 
The WHOLE neighbourhood
Look it's her  How could she?
Pay her no attention
nor offer her the time of day
Do not heed her Hello
Ignore her as she comes our way
should know better She Should. Heh!

    A truth of human nature I guess. Be careful what you say and to whom. You've captured this predicament very well. It takes on a life of its own, and too often becomes far from the truth. Good write.

    A human weakness of gossiping that is common. Thankyou for shedding light on this. Nice poem!
