Blood vs Water

A heavenly mix,
that gives a perfect fix.
They say blood is thicker than water,
a reverberating old proverb.

But, I object!!!
Course in the world I am living,
water is magic.
In the world I am living,
water is no different.

It can be lighter, but it is an anchor,
And blood can be thicker, but predominantly bitter.
Hence, the concept is invalid
to me, if not to anyone else.
Course in the world I am living,
Both hás volume.
