Poisonous Words (Loki)


A sly boy that was always told, “Hold your tongue!”

Alas he did not,

Gossip spread and rumors around like fire to hay

As many lost themselves from the wicked newfound lies.

Meheim, mischief, and madness defined,

Sew your lips!

Cease these lies!

Poison dripping off the words

Like a snake biting someone’s chords,

Sigyn hold the bucket tight

He is losing his sight,

Drip, drip, drip

Others are now poisoned too

Please, take your lies and shoo,

Bullies are corruption and poison to this place

Like a virus spreading 

Painful, hurtful, and stinging like mace,

Scars will never fade like the words spoken.

 

Contaminate another to make himself worthy

Everything is blurry,

Right or wrong he can’t see

Quick, spread the poison and you will be worthy to thee,

Peers scatter away as the bullies come

Try to take the crown

They are not friends, don’t be mistaken,

Fitting in is not this

Paraylized and frozen like black ice

Compassion is what you seek

Not aggression.

 

This is not fun and is not a game.

Nobody should be targeted.

Difference is not a sin it’s unique.

Bullying is not power.

It is not toughness.

It definitely is not equality.

Remember the golden rule.

Treat others how you want to be treated.
