 When I sliced volatile wire; impregnated with white currents of electricity, 

It spewed out a volley of poignant sparks in tandem; I was stabbed with
several impacts of shock; falling like a lifeless pigeon on the ground.
 
When I sliced open obdurate tree bark; embossed with a cluster of rustic root, 
A slurry of succulent white juice oozed out in emollient abundance; 
and the tree wept in hidden anguish. 
 
When I sliced the belly of the colossal mountain; infinite tones of mud leaked out 
in frenzy, 
A cluster of earthworm and rabbit got dismantled; and the once bombastic structure now resembled a beggar in torn rags.
 
When I sliced open the skin of emerald watermelon; rosy pink juice cascaded
down with spontaneity, 
The fruit looked ravishingly voluptuous like never before; with scores of brown seeds tumbling down.
 
When I sliced decayed bones freshly excavated from soil; a finely crushed
chowder of calcium flew directly in my eyes, 
The scenario appeared grotesquely despicable; with nostalgic memories of centuries ago besieging the cool air.
 
When I sliced through the heart of a concrete wall; a series of blatant cracks spread fast like wild fire, 
The structure now looked insipid and fragile; a battalion of red baked bricks came plummeting down; and broke my scalp.
 
When I sliced scintillating biscuits of yellow gold; an amber tinge incorporated the edge of my knife, 
The currency proliferated itself with each stroke of mine; and soon I had more pieces of gold than when I commenced slicing.
 
When I sliced through an ocean of loose sand; the blissful assemblage got thoroughly distorted, 
Bountiful splinters of silver soil hurtled towards my eyes; and there was profuse tearing that incorrigibly followed as an inevitable aftermath.
 
When I sliced open a balloon incorporated with salty cheese; and a fountain of water, 
An incoherent design of white dots then inhabited my face; scores of flies and cupid ants stuck like true stalwarts to my demeanor.
 
And when I sliced my heart open with the most sharpest of blade; crimson blood
gushed out at exhilarating speeds, 
It contained bold traces of the girl I immensely loved; the celestial image of
the mother from whom I was born.
