Gossip

A Poem by Phillip Wolke
"

A personification of gossip I wrote after hearing a conversation between to people that loved to learn about personal lives.

"

Gossip is the art of the white turtle doves and the make-up,

The one that walks around the room checking their mental WhatsApp,

Double up the personal info and fess up to,

How you love the lives of others,

It's your magazine or newspaper,

Your love of knowing,

The possible next telenovela fella!

I've got the stories about breakups! 

We'll give you a live showing!

On the corner right next to the news about the pay cuts.

Out of luck,

You lack the bucks,

But here's some words for you for free,

The small price of knowing what's up.

Your life is interesting,

I want your story,

Give it up.

Time's never up.
