innuendo
nasty insinuation
bearer of misinformation
who started the rumor
gossip

quick to parse your word
ever looking for excuse
to misinterpret
negative side of the coin
sabotaging the meaning

Poem:

had a wonderful dream
the start of my best poem yet
can’t remember shit
was it set beside a babbling stream
was it a place where we all met
thinking I’m going to throw a fit
was it to include a unique scheme
were you playing Russian roulette
time to sing john james jingleheimer schmidt
was I riding on a sunbeam
need to tie my brain to the ethernet
sorrow deserves another banana split
need to collect my thoughts on a particle beam
bad habit, old age, I forget
maybe tomorrow, I’ll remember shit
