Bad blood

Joy of orbits you make Earth tilt and bake the sun

do not depart stay in this room it is too soon

Doctors of note please save the world and sickly skins

draw out bad blood for it poisons bad blood is still red

So, look deeper find the markers swap the cancer

for benign cells for better blood let the light in

Keep her soul here wedded to life then it hit me


bad blood is lank it is too rich it hangs around

I shun the trade her soul for ours too big a price?

just drain off blood the sick, bad blood leave us alone

Pleasingly, Lothlorien also agreed to publish this poem.
