Waking Up With Fleas



Its my business, our business
Things said and done in private
I was your dirty little secret
And you, mine 

But ofcourse nothing ever stays private
And one must not expect it to
An ear or two would have been fine
Not everybody and their flipping mother

Now I walk around
Knowing that everyone knows my business
Yet they smile at me, and act ignorant
Once I turn around, they are quick to judge and laugh

And ofcourse these idiots forget
That no matter how thin you slice it
There are always two sides to a story
And that they only know one side

I guess someone should have reminded me
That when you lie down with dogs
You wake up with fleas
Irritating fleas that bug you until you kill them

And fleas make you itch
You see? You can hide an act
But you still have to live with the consequences
Consequences that everyone might know about


~ LOL. ok for real its not funny.. but it seems some people (1), cannot keep secrets. (2) distort stories to make themselves feel good. (3) Chat shit about other people and don't even have the balls to say it to the person involved. (4) Talk with their asses, instead of using their brains.. what i call verbal diarrhoea. (5) Have very short memories.. if only they would take a trip down memory lane, a detailed one.. maybe they would realize that they have absolutely no right to say shit. (6) People keep talking and laughing, and totally forget to say the words they should actually be saying 'You no force'.. all for what? small fila? shits and giggles? oh come on! put yourself in the other persons shoes!

OK, so this was inspired by some fila my friend gave me... you know how i love fila! I mean, i can't give details about somebody else's fila, but you can infer.  It just sucks when you diehhh you think you've done something in hiding kraa, not knowing that the other person has gone to tell everybody and their mama, and has even added salt and pepper to it chale..n now they even have inside jokes about you. Quite funny... but actually very very sad. .. But an interesting twist of Kharma -- after chatting shit about you, two months later homegirl comes to tell you that she's pregnant, and its yours. Now she's mad as hell... is it bcos its urs, or bcos she has finished spoiling your name so she cant be having your baby. lmao

PHOTO DISCLAIMER: I have nothing against kissing dogs.

  2. Nice poem, great analogy and your disclaimer made me laugh. Some say gossip makes the world go round but I think there is gossip and there is GOSSIP.

    Have a good week.
