poem

 Scandal

What have you been doing?

Eavesdropping on the couple who just left

What were they talking about?

Oh you know. The usual

Like what I'm curious now

Well I can’t exactly be sure 

I couldn’t actually hear them very well

What I could tell you might not be it at all

Oh it doesn’t matter

We’ll never see them again

And even if you do who cares

Just tell me what you think it was

I’ve decided it can’t be wrong 

And so he began to narrate in a voice so low

She had to lean forward to catch whatever she could

Oh I knew it was true

The first time I ever saw you!

Blushing, she lowered her eyes

Such a scandal to have ever trusted you
