Stoker stoking the fire-#1
a fallen cherubim
rushed through the gates
with a message for my Lord
and Lady of Abomination
letters patent
court of hades internecine
commissioning new formula
of innovation
my mistress read and stamped
and turned to me;
“from mortal imagination
we sprout new unlife
henceforth you shall be known as
Stoker the Vampire
go out into their world
spread amongst them
and bring their souls back to me
prey them and pervert them
and somewhere up there
you may find your queen
convert only the weak and vulnerable
and the power of hell
shall river through their veins”
this was too much
for my amorality to grasp
and as I tried to escape
my mistress flooded force around
with her eyes
compelling me back to her
silent indictement with fear;
“I only want to share my evil
and haunt them from a distance
be in their bad dreams
in foul wind to scare
and omens unfair
but not to be the one
to extract them from fate
and look in their eyes
as their humanity resigns”
of course I tried to rescind
and appeal the
unholy command
and spat out these spectres
that wormed ‘round like nightlight
but they turned on me
and conjured these wings
my shoulder blades
grew like heavy phantoms
spreading out like trees
surely this was too early
an unheard of design
by heinous humaneness
that before has never been
but I was stilled
by she of eternal darkness
waving her hand
as sensation of unnatural
consumed my decay
unearthly existential
and forcing sharp premolars
shooting out of my jaws
with ungodly
fixation for pathogen
that rose up from
my hollow belly
submersing my alterior being
then they pushed me through
the higher planes
until I broke out from
graveyard soils of upper domain
revelling in the blackness
seeking to devour
and chaotically intoxicate
them with the anathema of unexistence……………

I totally take that onboard miss Blu, I really appreciate your evaluation of this as I only penned this the last 24hrs, as a matter of fact my brandy, and gothic metal helped me to script 4 themes last night! (which I guess you will find out in due course)
And this is only one of them, so it was unexpected, but what was even more so was the sequal that I was working on today, where it took an unexpected turn as I was writing (I was going in a certain direction and then it changed course, I couldn’t help myself)
-and you’re totally right, the protagonist is forced against his will, and then finds a way to undermine the hierarchy when confronted directly with a victim that he falls for as soon as he climbs out of a gravesite
– and then is faced with conflict of principle vs passion!!
- I don’t mean to turn this into another Twilight series, which I cant stand, as its full of plastic vampires & werewolves that teenage girls dress up and play with,
so I prefer Milla Jovovic in the Underground series in that respect,
and I mean to impart more Substance into my characters………….V & WW
I have to say that since Ive been a member pf DUP the last 2 months I have been stretched beyond my borders as a writer, my only intention was to upload material that I had written in the past,
but I found that I have been so inspired/encouraged by other writers here that I have constructed new material,
such as I wrote 6 pieces over the last Anzac weekend ! which is the most productive Ive ever been

Hey there CI, I am so sorry it has taken me so long to do some reading. I saw your latest installments of this saga so I wanted to come back to the beginning first. I love how you told this story of dark transformation. I definitely got the feeling you were talking about Lilith here and her desire to transform man into demons taking revenge for her being forsaken by God. But in doing so granting these dark magic powers to the weak, vulnerable, and innocent. I suppose that is the meek inheriting the earth in a bit of different twist on that.
And of course the aspect of drinking blood;
"For the life of every creature is its blood: its blood is its life. Therefore I have said to the people of Israel, You shall not eat the blood of any creature, for the life of every creature is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off."
An affront to God.
Some really great lines...
"shall river through their veins”
"anathema of unexistence"
etc.
Look forward to reading more. Really enjoyed this a lot.

Hi sweet KX
thats no problem at all, take your time, literature is meant to be absorbed
I like how you related this to Lilith who is one of my favourite mythological entities, and could be characterised in this piece as the Lady Abomination (now youve given me ideas)
-actually Cradle have dedicated a whole album to her entitled: Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa (2010 under peaceville records - I relish in their irony!)
– yes and it’s a definitlely a reversal of power play, equipping the weak with strength
(an example is one of my favourite films from Sweden "Let the Right One in" about the girl-vamp that takes out predators and stands up for the bullied boy)
and I agree with your scriptural references, on meek inheritance and blood,
I think the blood of the lamb was the ultimate sacrifice in those days......?
-so you must have a churched background then?
O there is so much more from the dark pit of the Underworld for you to enjoy

Sorry my dear CI, I only just saw this response. Had a very long night with my Mom at the emergency room... Anyway,
Oh yes "Let the Right One in" I have seen that. It's great.
And "Queen of the Damned" was an awesome movie... ;)
No real church background to speak of but I find the mythology of it fascinating especially
things like Kaballah (not the Madonna flavor), Judaism, the roots of mono-theistic religion, and so on. There are so many interesting stories.
I hope to be pulled into that pit some more this weekend. :p

dear KX, I hope your mum will be equipped with strength
for whatever she may be going through now
she is very fortunate to have a great daughter like you being by her side
