"Careless Whispers"

Slander is slander! Have you ever let your tongue wander? Umm,I wonder.
Writing untruths onto paper can be very undesirable,especially when you turn your pen to liable.

The smallest of untrue words can eat and grow,destroying the purest of souls. Lies about another can be passed from one to the other adding or subtracting as they deliver their slack.

Self gratification is all that they seek,lie's spewing from their mouths as soon as they speak. "All this in today's civilization",I beg to question,especially when defamation of character enters the equation.

When as yet you hear of another being slandered,be it a stranger or even your brother,just take the time to ponder of the undue damage it could conjure. Are we capable of doing so? Umm,I wonder!

About this poem:
I went through a very bad experience of lies being spread about me because of someone else's jealousy. When such lies are spread they can stick into the mindset of certain individuals,(usually the narrow minded). I have myself been guilty of half believing rumours. But through this bad experience I have learnt not to take things on face value. I hope my poem will help us as individuals not to take too much notice of rumours,until they are factually proven.
