Blabber Mouth
Blabber Mouth

Loose lips lisp and mouths do chatter,
some to gossip and others to flatter,
truth to twist and honour to scatter,
too many words and silence shattered.

Over the fence and in the news,
everyone has to spout their views,
all of them falling for the ruse
that words will win and wisdom lose.



Line count: 8
