All Talk
People gabbing have me often confused,
simply stating things that are not founded.
It’s to their views I will have to get used,
as the stories come from mouths unbounded.
Accuse, they will. At times it has sounded
like questioning my very right to be.
Don’t they have a notion, it’s hurting me?
Do they believe that all things I have gained
was effortless, that my life was easy?
They’ll keep talking, in their colors they’ll paint.
