Village life

poem by: Ceri Baylis
Written on Feb 01, 2016

In my village there's not a lot Interesting people there is not 
The land that time has forgot
Misguided people And over the top
 Gossips talk shit they also lack wit Original thinkers? Not one bit 
Minds so small not filled with fact No ones reputation left in tact 
Gossips everywhere talking shit Small mindedness no wit
I despise the gossips with there fabricated tales 
Loose lips sinking ships destroying ones sails 
Contradictions not concise
Contracting claims cant be right 
Liars lie I don’t know why
Cant look you in the eye
Talk about others behind their backs 
Unable to be straight and honesty they lack 
Living behind others wrongdoing
Stories being told featuring you in
Two faced sad people with the inability to believe truth 
Rumours added too of anything you’ve been through 
The shame that will always spoil living where we live
As the bullshit behind the two faced I cant forgive
