A Crowd Called Aspersion
June 2nd, 2003
I am being accused of something
I cannot disprove
By people whose faces
I cannot see
Because…
They stand in the shadow of
A crowd called aspersion
And yet…
I feel vindicated,
Within myself,
Knowing that I
Perhaps I alone
Know the truth
That…
Regardless of the nay sayers
Who gather together to try to
Sling mud against my reputation
They do not understand that…
It is not my reputation
that they cannot tarnish
but rather….
My character….
I stand alone and yet…
I feel a presence
One that assures me…
You are not alone.
