Blake had two variants, both strong and true, One with 32-bit words, the other with 64. Blake-256 and Blake-224, they were named, Their digest sizes, different, but both acclaimed. Blake operated on a 4x4 array, Combining hash values in a clever way. With 8-word hash values and 16 words to combine, Blake created a hash that was truly divine. But Blake had a sibling, a function quite new, Blake2 was its name, announced in 2012. Based on Blake, it improved and enhanced, A more efficient hash, it proudly advanced.
