Busy Bodies.

I am sorry, why do I have to report to you

On my comings and going and everything that I do.

No one made you lord and master.

The only one that is worthy of that title is my pastor.

Your nose is doing more than just smelling.

How much info you blurted out, there’s no way of telling

Respect the word privacy.

Who appointed you to investigate me.

Don’t I leave you alone.

Your most intimate secrets remain in your home.

What’s wrong with your life, that you try to pin-point my every move

With a magnifying device.

Suppose I turn the table?

And poke into your life when ever I am able.

Is there no limit to what you might do.

I think it’s time to give your nose a curfew.

I hope your getting the hint.

Yes it’s time to give up that hound dog scent.

    nice poem. but I’m rather confused.

    this poem is dedicated to all the people that have trouble keeping their lives together, and insist on messing with other people’s lives just to make it through their day.

    I felt like this in previous relationship. It was only because I cared. Got burned and will never do it again.
    Very good flow

    I know the feeling very well. I hate when people invades my privacy.

    I know too many people like this. They take one little tidbit of what they think someone is doing and turn it into a front-page spectacular news story, blown way out of proportion. They do it so they can keep drama going and detract from all the mess they have in their own lives.
