Gossiper Ogres

Gossip can lead to bullying the vulnerable.

Gossiper Ogres

 

 

Gossiper ogres have to rattle,

Breeze into our lives to inflict,

Undermine anybody they can,

Imprinting their sourly verdict.

 

They’ve said we’re bad-seeds,

Dropped some bombs on you,

Stretched their version of truth,

Then concoct anything untrue.

 

Rumour and those depravities,

Starting from one bitter person,

Tearing despicable open scars,

Slamming merry-hearts broken.

 

Resentment becomes the key,

Indiscriminately they will spew,

Jealousy carved a foul course,

Dumping ogre-pains onto you.

 

Tramping someone downward,

Denouncing to see the reprisal,

A sickness shaming our world,

They’ll claim in guiltless denial.

 

Whisperings of wily-ogres sting,

Just as the invisible heartaches.

Maybe it’ll bunch their numbers,

Snarling at-us similar mistakes?

 

As kindness persists abolished,

Angry ogres rally in agreement,

Thinking their wrath isn’t wrong,

Of betrayal and bad judgement.

 

How can they celebrate a victory,

Drawing the first innocent blood?

Do ogres feel better themselves,

When they emit that lousy crud?

 

Do not be corrupted by an ogre,

Slinging mud-about like a sleuth,

You’ll get burned in the scheme,

Neglecting honour and the truth.

 

Watch them parade indifference,

Finding there’s an-ogre backlash,

Depicting confident they’re guilty,

Dooming brazen-ogres abashed.

 

Savour your time gossiper ogres,

Life may not lend you any favour

Your spree-itch detaches shortly,

Crushing hard by-a savvy gamer.

This piece filled me with a really odd scene in the mind. It was if someone had crossed highschool of the damned with a really bad Dungeons and Dragons role playing session with some of the most rowdy and aggressive players there are.

I think you crafted a very unique and well worded piece regarding those who gossip and in turn end up becoming bullies, for words are often as hard as a good bat at times.

Thanks for sharing your ink.
