Changing the tone of deception

 

With a brisk smile of a lie.

 

Fortify the senses awareness,

 

To detect the truth of a situation.

 

 

 

Gossip has ruined  some reputations,

 

When no other avenue was explored.

 

Verify the facts for yourself, when heard,

 

And you may spare a reputation.

Good advice. But everyone loves gossip and passes it on regardless whether it's true or not.
