If you
Dress for success
Wear nice clothes
People will talk
Oh Your one of
Those
Putting on airs
Supercilious
Conceited
Egotistical
Know it all
High and mighty
Self important
Attention seeker


If you
Dress simply
People will talk
You’re broke
Have no money
Lackadaisical
Pitifully
Poor

If you are
Successful
Prosperous
Thriving
Flourishing
People will talk
Inauspicious
Show off
Rubbing
in our face
Purposely
Making
Us look
Bad

If you are
Struggling
Phlegmatic
Unsentimental
People will talk
You’re
Languishing
Weak minded
In
The
Wrong
Place

If you
Speak
your mind
People will talk
You are
Superannuated
Antiquated
Archaic
Obsolete
Rude
Various
Opinions
Willingly
Conclude

If you
Stay Quiet
Quiescent
Indolent
Languorous
People will talk
You’re sulking
Brooding
Pouting
Self-deluding
Tantrum

Life is
convoluted
Opinions
Are like
Elbows
Everybody
Has one

No matter
What you
Do today
People
Will always
Have something
To say


Don’t let
Negativity
Rule the day
Mind over matter
Nonsense
Should not have
A voice
A choice
Useless chatter

Ignorant
Inconsequential
Naysayers
Are
Irrelevant
Players

As long
As
God
Is pleased
With what
You do
And say

Who cares
What people
Say
In the
Light of day

Live
God’s
Way

BLT word of the day challenge
May 3 2025 sleuth, sleuthing
To Sloan is to carefully or methodically search for information, or to act as a detective
May 1, 2025
Convoluted
Something described as convoluted is very complicated and difficult to understand or has many curves and turns
