Blood Part 2

6/8/21 Blood stained into lands being conquered Blood on this can of Monster Blood in the water Blood pooling and congealing from all the slaughter Blood hitting close to home, when you got a squatter Blood whether the weather turned colder or hotter Sometimes had to be your own blood blotter Regardless of if you think, why should I bloody bother? Much more than blood I have to offer Blood smeared coins in the coffer Would you spill blood to protect your daughter and father? Don't bring all this blood around family, especially any toddler Blood on a ball used for soccer Blood on a piece of copper Blood on a bottle of lager It was a bloody scene after the use of a chopper The bloody aftermath captured on film by a helicopter Blood ended up on a bolt and washer Blood flowing through the body or going out if your a soon to be goner Blood all over in a world that can be bonkers Could stay peaceful or soon turn to blood from here to yonder Familiar with blood as a warmonger Blood being drawn, from not being able to hold out any longer Much more than blood sweat and tears can get you stronger All this blood makes me ponder Sad that blood makes too many excited enough to holler Blood among nightcrawlers And blood always near lifeforms that are larger or smaller The residue of blood on dollars As well as blood on the shirt collar Blood spilled in extravagance or in squalor It would be a bloody outrage for a prince, but not for a pauper Blood the one thing too many thirst of Drawing first blood The blood becoming of one with mud Blood covered spuds An unexpected surge of blood from a flood Blood underneath the moon and the sun Blood from the threads of fate already being spun Blood takes the sides of none Blood is just never quite done
