The Grapevine
May 21, 2010
I heard it through the grapevine
Through cupped hands, and mendacious laughter
Their mocking echoed eerily, up through the cobwebbed rafters
I heard it through the grapevine
That evil dances upon thy shoulders
Regret droops down my once bright eyes, remorse 1,000 boulders
I heard it through the grapevine
And from the fireflies in the trees
Now stick and stones will break my bones, and lies will always hurt me

I really liked this. I liked your vocabulary and all the "mataphors" (am I using that correctly?). It was really good. Keep it up! :D
