because, beauty resides in the heart of plastic

because, words are toys-manipulated by anyone and everyone
because apples are not oranges, they're infected with deadly H1N1
because, most deaths happen in hospital premises itself
because, gravitational forces doesnt explain sudden dizziness and loss of breath.
because, mortality is a pain, and immortality a tragic coincidence
because, end is approaching steadily near.
because.
