 Recriminations detonate

 triggered by ill-advised words and coincidental soap plots,
 destroying composure as errant steps fall onto landmines.

 Questions ricochet

 shot from a gun barrel mouth, live ammunition fired incessantly
 demanding unwanted answers with volleys from a Gattling gun.

 Consequences escalate

 becoming thundercloud heavy, saturating the atmosphere, until
 the tension breaks with the inevitable release of monsoon rain.

 Apologies falter

 failing to halt reproach and interrogation, words are mown down
 becoming road-kill beneath the wheels on a country road.

 Regrets paralyse.
