Rachel Couvillon Poet Rhyme

Prepare, My Beloved

Prepare 
For a bloodbath, 
My beloved. 
Prepare. 

Prepare
For this day shall 
Go down in history. 
Make sure you stand erect,
Make sure your words are correct.
Prepare for a bloodbath, 
My beloved. 
Prepare. 

Prepare 
To risk not only your life,
But the life of the one at your side.
Whether your neighbor be me, 
Or be she,
Prepare for a bloodbath,
My beloved. 
Prepare.

Prepare
To choose a path
When the road splits.
Two sides and only one chance
Be sure-footed before you advance. 
Prepare for a bloodbath, 
My beloved. 
Prepare.

Prepare
Because actions and words
Cannot be reversed. 
In a way you’ve been bled
Once they are done or said. 
You cannot take them back. 

So
Prepare 
For a bloodbath, 
My beloved. 
Prepare.
