Blood Son
Blood is thicker than water
Sometimes love is thicker than blood
Sometimes dad is the brother from another mother
From another bloodline
Not family or friend
A man who the family questions
Who is he
Why is he in this boy’s life
Why is he here at all
The boy’s bio
Logical
But not logical
Father forfeits his rights
Because he is not in his son’s life
Like a bee cross pollinates
And crisscross the meadows
In the fields to bring forth growth and life
No one questions
Its mission
But the boy’s hearts knows that
Blood is thicker than water
Sometimes love is thicker than blood
