Tonguesy Stepsy by Kenn Westenbroek (Kenn's bio) Did you hear? Can you believe? I don't want to sound, sound so negative. Itching ears are all around, like a dachshund's ears dragging the ground. Moved across the path, where others walked. What is it you picked up, when your ears were too long to carry. I hope she's not offended; I'll have to call you back. La La La, La Te Da, I'll never, call that place again. Whoops, another casualty, of a sudden epidemic, of an age-old disease, called tonguesy stepsy. It is quite a sickness, antibiotics cannot bring cure. Hurt feelings pop up everywhere, the trail that flares the talker. Tongue if by see, you if by phone call another to pick a bone. To someone else that doesn't matter. Dig a hole, need a handout, wider, not deeper, deeper, not wider. You still need boots you hit the water table. Indigestion Rolaids can't cure Green, Yellow, Orange, Tums I don't think the color will matter. Gossip doesn't taste good, but it does have flavor. Hard hearts, soft friendship, hatred, unforgiveness. Telephone, Telegraph, Tele-Nobody. Blown out of proportion, grand in size, big fish story, not always wise. The ring, the phone, you must have heard, the circuit. Are you sure you didn't forget the rumor not one word. He said, she said, Yada yada, I'll call you and tell you how the e-mail read.. Thought you oughta know. Where's the beef? What's the beef? Why me? Why you? Why who? Yahoo!! Caught in the middle It's not hard to be in the middle, when you hang in the crowd. Try being silent, habit, tongue in mouth, hope it don't roll out. Eyes in socket see what you want Put your closed pen in your pocket, what happens we will see? What comes of it we will know? "Ladies and gentlemen" Don't be a spectacle; it's not a show. Grandstanding means trouble. It's selfish, God knows. Save yourself conceal the matter if you dare.
