The best of the worst,
rules amidst chaos,
honor amongst thieves
—brothers in blood

thought provoking, as ever!
I'm not sure if its by design
(knowing your track record, I believe it is)
but that line:
'rules amidst chaos'
makes one, immediately think of
'(Ruler's) amidst chaos'
and that completely adds new insight's to your wordplay
of Blood Oath, within
'honor amongst thieves'..
it really reads, as a such a bleak snapshot
of what we majority assume as the worst
of humanity, while Wilfully ignoring
our very fingerprints
on those shackles we allow to 'adorn' our depiction
of victimhood worshipping, self-deluding: lives...
(I'll stop here, or else this will turn
into another SA length, futile ramble) lol
Thanks LB. I was inspired by the loyalty shown to such as Mafia Dons, Gang Leaders and even Politicians. Shakespeare was best at this. As always, thanks so much.

'belonging'
is the most powerful Drug
We, humanity: manufactured...
Cultural DNA...
entwined, so deep - from birth
all we can do
is breathe a little out, at a time
in each exhale
of enlightened freedom's: great escape...
Kurt,
Very well said,
my dear author.
Your Dreamsleep is enlightening.
