Rumors
(repost from open 6 and 9)

I heard the other day from a friend
Of a friend who knows a friend
No names…….
You know about whats her name
And that guy, the cute one!
Well you know whats going on
With them don’t you……
No way, how do you know.
I heard it from a good source….
Oh my gawd!
I gotta call my friend!

In Poet land,
Assumptions so often fuel that fan,
500 minds, dissecting every line,
so often wrong most of the time.
Only the poet knows for sure,
And she ain’t telling……
No kiss and tell here folks,
But look at that post,
He’s got a secret I know,
Gossip, gossip, gossip,
The circle has begun
Everybody come indulge in the fun.

Tragedy, romance, love,
Its very sad, so sad,
Ahh, Sheriee, where have you been,
In the night, are you the one I dream of,
The words of life we weave,
Interpretations, fiction, surreal,
Hey whats going on here,
Whats the real deal…..
I know! And I’m not telling,
Na na nana na.

Rumors Rumors Rumors,
I’ll tell her a secret,
She’ll tell it to,
A brand new meaning,
When it reaches you.
Ah, but I like this better,
A little tweak here,
A little tweak there,
All that impromTOE flair,
(did you read that its about Toe)
ka-ching….. hot off the rumor mill presses
get yours now, before the story changes.

pssst... did you hear about Lorelei and Deer..
don't tell Long John... shhhhhh
and Sigmund Freud is really Justin Sane...
and Menage Numero Trois is sending me secret
french messages... something about my Oubliez
or so I've heard.....
most rumors at passions are spread by Long John and Balladeer.. or so I've heard from Local Rebel...
And that stuff about SEA... oooooh hot,
its all true... or so she say's.    

Any rumors you’ve heard about me,
Have been greatly exaggerated,
Except the part about the size
of my cowboy hat……….
