16. BLAME IT

 

The rain goes on; blame it on the weatherman,

The mud appears dreadfully scorched; blame it on paucity of water,

The cigarette causes hostile cancer; blame it on fillings of noxious tobacco,

The automobile plummets down the valley; blame it on failure of intricate

brake,

The glistening marble looks untidy; blame it on blemishes of dark chocolate,

The luxury liner sinks in the ocean; blame it on gaping holes in its persona,

The man trips over and bruises his nose; blame it on the loose splinters of

stone,

The contemporary computer closes abruptly; blame it on a plethora of nefarious

virus,

The plush cable car hurtles down the mountain; blame it on the frigid wire,

The deadly poison strangulates breath; blame it on the venomous adder,

The demeanor of white paper transits of disdainful yellow; blame it on the

process of perpetual decay,

The knotted hand pains while hoisting loads; blame it on a network of fracture,

The outlines of objects seems to be fading; blame it on diminishing vision,

Immaculate chunks of rosewood develop an army of indentation; blame it on the

belligerent termite,

The fledglings didn’t hatch from the shell; blame it on inadequate proportion

of heat,

The body was grotesquely distorted since birth; blame it on the chromosomes,

Infinite fibers of hair were sprawled with dandruff; blame it on the lack of oil,

The lights on the street flickered violently; blame it on weak current,

The eyes inevitably felt dreary with intoxication; blame it on the honey golden alcohol,

The soul trembled for mercy; blame it on the sins of past life;

And the heart stopped throbbing;relinquishing to beat; blame it on

the compassionate love lost.
