I think I'm an exception.
To the rule that applies to all;
it's never the victim's fault
Bad things don't happen to me.
I seek them out.
A magnifying glass to my eye,
head in the sky
peering at the clouds,
avoiding the ground
so it's not my fault when I slip
and fall off the cliff.
Bad things don't happen to me.
But when they do...
I won't be able to blame you.
