Ode To My Tongue Poem by Brooke Renwick

Ode To My Tongue

Rating: 5.0


Gleaning and,
preening to exist,
bones are milled and,
ashes we sift.

'He said' - 'She said'
Round and round it goes,
What I said,
nobody knows.

Beside the copier,
On the bus,
In the cereal aisle,
Who can we trust?

Ear's pricked,
We've been schooled,
Up to date now,
The tongue the tool.

Everyone gossips,
That's how it goes,
Popular opinion with
The words we sow.

We are all too opinionated in today's world. Too much talk no action. Great words. Here's to world peace and less opinions by those in power who think they are more important than the little guy.
