It’s Never My Fault

I frizzle out at a good-looking mate’s sight
I’m ‘gay’
It’s not my fault
It’s just the way my emotions were formed

My supple body gets me everything I want
I’m a prostitute
It’s not my fault
Life’s meant to be spent

My hands itch at the sight of public funds
I’m Kleptomaniac
It’s not my fault
It’s a sickness that runs in my blood

The pleasure of succulent thighs is my heart’s utmost desire
I’m a philanderer
It’s not my fault
It’s normal that my manhood dangles between my thighs

Diversity wrenches the guts out of me
I’m a fanatic
It’s not my fault
It’s just the way my mind has been set

But, really, it’s never my fault
It’s just the human spirit;
An ever rising tide
An unsettling storm
Always aching to push further and further
Till it’s far beyond my reach

At a point it’s stuck
Neither able to move further or back
Then it seeks for a settlement
Which it usually find in the midst of us

At first, it’s normal
Then, abnormal
Then, detrimental
Finally it becomes my worst woe

Too strong to die, it lives on
No longer able to be fought or conquered
I’m left with no other choice
Than to live strongly and die with it
