My name is Gossip.
I have no respect for justice.
I break hearts and ruin lives.
I am cunning, malicious and
gather strength with age.
The more I am quoted,
the more I am believed.
I flourish at every level of society.
My victims are helpless.
They cannot protect themselves
against me because
I have no name and no face.
I have no name and no face.
To track me down is impossible.
The harder you try, the more
elusive I become.
I am nobody's friend.
Once I tarnish a reputation,
it is never the same.
I topple governments and
wreck marriages.
I ruin careers and cause
sleepless nights, heartaches
and indigestion.
I spawn suspicion
and generate grief.
I make innocent people cry
in their pillows.
Even my name hisses.
I am called GOSSIP.
Office gossip-
Shop gossip-
Party gossip-
Telephone gossip.
I make headlines and
headaches.
REMEMBER, you repeat a story,
ask yourself:
is it true?
Is it fair?
Is it necessary??
If not, do not repeat it.
