Another #TwistedNurseryRhyme, this time mimicking "Lavender's blue, dilly dilly" playing off Norse mythology and the werewolf fantasy

Great Odin’s doom,
bloody bloody,
hast run amok
Angrboda’s grief,
bloody bloody,
looms Ragnarök

The fate of gods,
bloody bloody,
low, birthed the curse
A curse on men,
bloody bloody,
to no fate worse

Autumn moon bright,
bloody bloody,
wolfsbane in bloom
In th’moon high dark,
bloody bloody,
pure hearts swoon

Neath th’wolf willow,
bloody bloody,
find Finrir loosed
In th’hearts of men,
bloody bloody,
fanged lust transmutes

Men become beasts,
bloody bloody,
horror and plague
Become demons,
bloody bloody,
unto the grave

The curse will own,
bloody bloody,
your bloodied heart
In feral smiles of,
bloody bloody,
the moon high dark
