the color of Blood

by @karen-champagne

Blood is the color red. Evil and fire. Love and lust. Rebirth and Jesus. Danger and anger. Blood is the color of red of war. For many who have lost their lives. And shed blood for freedom. Blood represents death. Blood is the color of red running through our veins. Blood shows no prejudice Regardless of our skin color All blood is still the same. Blood is the color of red cloth. The killing in the suberbs. Shows your race. The slang of gangs. Blood is the color of red in red wine. Our grapes of wrath. Fermenting and full bodied. The smell of wickedness. Blood is the color of  red in our love and our passion. Of St. Valentine. Of our hearts and our mind. Days of remembrances. Blood is the color  of red in  " blood red lipstick". Attracts us humans through love and lust. Steals our innocence. Robs our purity. Blood is the color of red of Jesus Blood. It keeps the body of Christ alive. Brings cleansing to the soul. Is the rebirth and resurrection. Blood is a primary color.
