Summary
"The blood of the covenantThicker than the water of the wombTo stick with familyOr live with ones you choose" ~~~~ There is an argument of nature versus nurture; does one's upbringing truly effect the way they turn out? Or is it within our DNA? Programmed into us from our first breath till our last? OR, a collection of character studies, focusing in on the complexity of family.

The blood of the covenant
Thicker than the water of the womb
To stick with family
Or live with ones you choose
Birds of a feather
Flock together
Until the cat comes,
Marching through
To stay, or to go
We must make a choice
Not all families have love
To stay, or to go
We must make a choice
You might be happier, the further away you are
