Rumors


Some prefer their rumors in pieces
         words to chew and consider
                  cows in a huddle beneath the oaks
                           cuds to digest
                  in the companionship of kind

Connection more important than truth
         words binding one to another
                  shreds of evidence
                           happenstance
                  enduring debris

Sorting out truth is a game
         like volleyball with its setup
                  and spike
                           the right team
                  sharing the win

Malevolent process that divides
         like cells in a cancerous growth
                  uncontrolled
                           insidious
                  sometimes fatal
