gossiping birds
amused shadows claw
do you stand in judgment of me?
greetings everyone but let's roll the verse first
and understand we don't need the formality
I'm sure we've already met
shallow without depth
I would love to jump in
but your pool of knowledge is cold
not inviting at all
gossip little back birds
cluck, cluck
there's not much to talk about
echoing in silence
the noise the children of scorn make
amazes them, I would encourage you
but you're already patting each other on the back
slips the tongue
behaving more like a blade
let this affect all who think this fits their ego
otherwise greeting in a friendly open manner

I wish people understood that gossip is a form of narcissism because you are attempting to influence how another person feels about someone else. And the classic narcissist does just that if they can't control you themselves.

good morning beautiful Ahavati I've long been told I'm being talked about in a negative manner and really there isn't much to say in my opinion but after a while it starts to bother me thank you for your support because I used to come here and it was a sanctuary no matter what I write about but lately I don't see supporters when I look at the screen of who's here but jury that's found me guilty...while reviewing the world we are all of us affected by in different ways and I am affected more different than most do to my mental illness you are deeply appreciated for just being here 💕

"I've long been told I'm being talked about in a negative manner"
Whoever is telling you that is gossiping themselves and need to keep their damn mouth shut. And I'll tell them that personally if they want to message me.
The energy is very intense right now, Brenda. We must all learn to move forward on our own at times; it really has nothing to do with others but is a test of our resolve. Write for yourself. It's the only person YOU need to please in order to be truly happy.

We lack a common ground of discussion, upon which talking and dialog would be a thriving intraction.
But when we differ even on a common background, any further tete-a-tete will be just a waste of time..
Thanks for sharing crimsin, so straightforward..Hamid

we all have a common ground here it is that we all of us writers basically what I think we all want is to be told honestly what or how a person feels about your art or what you have written and to keep in mind we are all affected by what is going on in the world and how affects differently something is always be a muse to us...each other,life, surroundings in any case I try to say something positive as a way of encouraging my fellow which is another commonality you don't have to like the poem to encourage a new who may be struggling thank you Hamid for responding 💕

write because you love the calling, nothing more. the squawking belongs in the tree tops where the wind will dispense it into background nonsense.
Be yourself and love yourself!

I missed this write but I just commented on willows poem, so I had to come check this out. Gossip
is a horrible assassination on someone's character. Hang in there.
You are a human lighthouse here. Completely original:)
We all struggle in one way or the other.

Dear B,
Your turn of phrase for such a subject gives these gossipers more grace than they deserve. I don’t know if I could be so generous. I am very grateful for your resolve to be the kind and talented and supportive poet you are to us all. H🌷

good morning beautiful Honoria it's very difficult to persevere knowing you will be ignored and or talked about in my day to day and that's including my psych doctor who just prescribes medical restrains nobody wants to talk about it....so I am left alone questioning myself like this might be this be a delusion and this I know is real and when stop working things become real and was is frightening my voices in my mind are very helpful to point out the painful bits of my life I was blocking out...I deeply appreciate you for listening 💕
