The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

In going from room to room in the dark,

I reached out blindly to save my face,

But neglected, however lightly, to lace

My fingers and close my arms in an arc.

A slim door got in past my guard,

And hit me a blow in the head so hard

I had my native simile jarred.

So people and things don't pair any more

With what they used to pair with before.

Under her dark veil she wrung her hands.

"Why are you so pale today?"

"Because I made him drink of stinging grief

Until he got drunk on it.

How can I forget? He staggered out,

His mouth twisted in agony.

I ran down not touching the bannister



And caught up with him at the gate.

I cried: 'A joke!

That's all it was. If you leave, I'll die.'

He smiled calmly and grimly

And told me: 'Don't stand here in the wind.' "

The sun resigns,

bleeds out the vestiges –

remnants of the day.



Exsanguination edges into twilight:

red-brown hangs;

upwards darkens:

blue-brown,

blue-black,

death-black,

disquiet – furtive,

like ghoul-ridden fog.



A sombre moon assumes its role,

gushing silver-white lymph upon the muted scape –

a prequel of supernatural undertones

to chill the scene,

ice the spine,

kill the brain –



we have unnerved the very firmament.



But now a shadow closing down the globe:

dinosaurian cloud shrouds the moon glaze,

claims the late hour –

declared in a dying crow caw.





I, the hidden owl

– nemesis of claustrophobic minds –

awake! for mammal flesh –

fresh, jerking out its warmth in dance of death.

Rock-still I perch in sculptured oneness

with my crooked night-tree,

emanating nocturnal allure.



Together we scowl

together we play the dark

upon the land and sky

and mind



while you lie as dead in your box.

Dark girl so filled with strife

Dark Dark girl she'll take your life

Dark girl stay for a while

Dark Dark girl she makes me smile

Dark girl she shows no fear

Dark Dark girl is always near

Dark girl wont see her cry

Dark Dark girl just wants to die



But Dark girl lives in the dark

so you dont see her painfull mark



Dark Dark girl may never know

just how much the light can show
