Fraudulent friends manifested as foes,
Accomplished and proficient connivers.
Relentless torture, tragic scapegoats chose,
Passionately subverting survivors.

Rumors, gossip collectively abuzz,
Consorting deficiency of morals.
Random victimization just because,
Jubilance atop misguided laurels.

Pretending amity suspiciously,
Pervasively abused and belittled.
Hatred, hostility spewed viciously,
A once vibrant soul savagely whittled.

Festering lesions challenging one’s worth,
Absolute dejection, cursing one’s birth.

“Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip.” ~ Will Rogers
