Vampire
A vampire's hunger
is gnawing and
deep
are you ready
to grasp
a life undead
immortal you'd
be
not of this
coil
but dead and
cold
decaying
inside
as you hunger and crave,
the warmth of life's blood
from an
innocent babe
someone you
love,
take all you
want
get death in
return
your life
you've forfeit,
for the mantle of doom.
So which would you choose?
This trick or this treat
on this most
dark and deadly
Halloween fête?
