So Where Does The Blame Lie... ?!?

When It Comes To Lives...
That Are... Marginalised... ?!?

And By This I Mean...
Those In POVERTY... !!!

Is It Down To THEM... ?!?

Or Corrupt Systems...
And Their Negligence... ?!?

Is It Fair To Suggest...
That World Governments...
Could Really CARE LESS...
About Those Who They Know...
That They CAN'T CONTROL...
Like REBELLIOUS Souls...
With Dark Skin Tones... ?!?

Or Those White Folks...
Who Just Won’t Do...
As They Are Told... !!!

Because There Are A Few...
Don’t Get It Confused... !!!

Which Leads Me To...
The Question of WHO...
Can Really Be Blamed...
For Creating Slaves...
And Race Hate Today... !?!

Should The Blame Be Placed...
On... Colonial Names... ?!?

Are They The ONLY Ones...
To Have Employed Chains...
In Foreign Kingdoms...
That They Now Dominate... ?!?

Or Can Blame Be Aimed...
At Those Who Gained...
From Slavery Trades...

Who Sold Their Souls...
By SELLING THEIR OWN... !!!

Who Should Be ASHAMED...
of Claiming... PAY...
Instead of Protecting...
Those From Their Race... !!!

Should Blame Be Injected...
Into This Debate... ?!?

Or Just Be REJECTED...
As Being... INSANE... ?!?

Are TRAITOROUS Ways...
NOT WORTHY of BLAME... !?!

Or Can ANY Race CLAIM...
That They’re FREE of MISTAKES...
And Have Always Embraced...

Behaviour That’s HUMANE... !?!

You See Blame Is Used...
Much Like A Ruse...
To Keep People Confused...
And Devoid of TRUTH... !!!

So WHO Can We Blame...
For Societal Pain...
In The World Today...

Or Should That Be WHAT... ?!?

Like... CORONA Strains...
And Vaccine Campaigns...

Can We Blame The CHINESE... ?!?

You See Blame DEFAMES...
And Sometimes DECEIVES... !!!

If What You Believe...
Is A... FALLACY... !!!

However LIES Can Be Blamed...
When The Truth Is Displaced...
For LIARS To GAIN...
And AVOID Being RESTRAINED... !!!

The Blame Game Is Played...
By... Political Names...
Pretty Much EVERYDAY... !!!

It’s A Crying Shame...
To See How They INFLATE...
Problems of The State... !!!

Like This Sudden Need...
For Us All To VACCINATE... !?!

Because As I’ve Read Today...
There’s Apparently Now...
A... MEXICAN WAVE...
Taking Centre Stage... !!!

Like It Did In The Days...
of Those World Cup Games... !!!

Now Of Course That’s A JOKE... !!!

But Blame Can Invoke...
Lots of Dubious Quotes...
That Can Leave People BROKE... !!!

If You’re Blamed For ****...
Or Exporting *******...
ALL OVER THE PLACE... !!!

It Can Start Campaigns...
And Can RUIN Your Name... !!!

If What You’re Blamed For...
Starts An Online War...

Like We See Nowadays...

So Where Does The Blame Lie...
For These Online Crimes...
That Have Lead To SUICIDES...
And A LOT More That’s VILE... !!!

With Those Running Websites... ?!?

Or Big Tech Companies... ???

Who Really DON'T Seem...
To Be Too Worried...
About ABUSES Seen...
On Internet Screens... ???

Can We Simply Blame GREED...
And A LUST For MONEY...
As The Reasons For...
What Many DEPLORE... !!!

From Online ****...
To Things Now Bought...
From Online Stores... !!!

NO ACCOUNTABILITY...
Seems To Be Where Blame...
Is Now Being... AIMED... !!!

When Online Companies...
Face The Type of Complaints...
That Say That They’re Playing...
Some DANGEROUS Games...
With Peoples’ Brains...
Just To... Get Paid... !!!

It’s The Same Ol’ Same...

Blame's ALL OVER The Place... !!!
EXCEPT... Perhaps...
Where It REALLY SHOULD BE... ?!?

Because What Is FACT...
Is That People NEED...
To Take A STEP BACK...
And Look At THEMSELVES... !!!

Instead of Laying Blame...
With... EVERYONE ELSE... !!!

Because The Bottom Line...
When It Comes To Our Lives...
Is That Choices We Make...
Are What Really DEFINE...

The Answer To...
This Question of Mine...

That’s Simply Asking This...

“ Where The Blame Really Lies “
Not such an easy question to face, or to, TRUTHFULLY Answer !
