Gossip, Rumors And Slander

Gossip dies When it hits the ears of the wise, When it comes to a deaf man's door That gossip is no more. Rumors are started by haters They are carried on by fools and debaters, When they are combatted by truths and not fists Rumors, then no longer exists. Slander is started by the weak When revenge and hate they do actively seek, The gullible and the foolish is easily deceived Slander by idiots is then believed. A wise man once said The truest man is the one who is dead, When gossip or rumors or slander come upon his ear Upon it, he does not ever adhere. Randy L. McClave
