Red Whit and Blue
Spinning round and round
Ever moving up
Never going down

Red for blood
Dripping from a towel
Just set out to dry
Shining in the setting sun

Blue for the veins
Never really in pain
Pulsing back and forth
like drafts through a door

White for the clean
Sitting in warm water
On someones neck
Not really a bother

It spins all day and night
ever glowing bright
like a beacon
in the night
