BLO.OD.
(Disclaimer: This poem is not intended to hurt anyone's emotions. Any action in the same vein is sincerely regretted.)
BLO.OD.
Two syllables.
Pronounced 'dis-gas-ting', 'eww', and also 'pay-tri-o-tik' and 'aww-nur'
Def. (1): Something unmentionable that occurs one week every month, renders women worldwide untouchable, is regarded taboo and poisonous by society.
Def. (2): A quality which enables heredity (or its unwanted first cousin nepotism) as a deciding factor for positions of power. A viable career option for most politicians.
(Ref. Blue blood: a speciality only found in the aristocracy)
Def. (3): The gushing rivers and its tributaries that mar history and are used in great amounts to sculpt and fashion the world as we know it. First coated by steel, then permeated with gas, and then accentuated with explosions of hydrogen.
Def. (4): An excuse used for patriotism (see 'boundaries' and 'barriers'). Causes its elder uncle war in great amounts, as well as fueling hatred (see 'prejudice')
Def. (5): A substance that flows through almost every living organism and is therefore (ideally) a uniting factor, but often gets confused with labels of religion, patriotism, and colour. Also, technically, makes us no different than animals. Additionally, should also create empathy and togetherness.
