Blood is thicker than water, they say, but the closest to you can poison the cup behind your back
and dig graves
at the sight of your presence.
Blood is thicker than water, they say, but the closest to you can stab thorns in your soul and knives in your back and then tell you that
you are insane.
Blood is thicker than water, they say, but the closest to you can throw and slam the blade of their words into your face
and write scars on your heart.
Blood is thicker than water, they say, but it is also said that “the blood of the covenant is thicker
than the water of the womb.”
Blood is thicker than water, they say, but I say: love
is thicker than both.
