A Twist of a Vampire’s Fate II
Embracing The Darkness
DRACON’S CASTLE
Sighisoara, Romania
1600
Dracon’s body twisted to the agonizing internal self-torture of not abiding to the call of the night. His restless mind toiled with suckling the neck of a virgin within his castle walls. He palmed his goatee down; willing the need to pass its course. He glanced over at the glass of half consumed blood resting idle on his fireplace mantel board. Dracon sat up. He flashed his presence over to the fireplace and lifted the glass from off the mantel board. He put it up to his mouth and took a...

The Wizard
Peel me back and goggle sin
Eerie cauldrons
Bats, black cats and goblins
I carry staff, no hobbling
A master of the craft
I conjure crap and masses
Swallow it, you following?
Let's begin
At first a youngin learning
to
Satiate the fire burning
In his hollows
Still he made an earning
Doing tricks for dollars
Turning men to frogs
Or making wine from water
For his followers
All the while
Darkness
In his eyes
These tricks were only trite
Not a drop of depth to...

The Promise of a Cinnamon Kiss
Circa 1462; Dunstanburgh Castle
The note dropped to the awaiting rider
the segregative thought is mine, Kayleigh
to be alone in your bed of spice
nontropical and wild my beloved
for this Boone is his folly in his marriage quest
I will not protect this strange forlorn husband
my fathers claim across the land to the north is false
meet me at the Tappan-Zee draw
on the bridge at dawn my love
so I may cross my heart to be given as yours
or I will draw this sword
to cut this breast and deny ...

ah, for a king`s burden
Ah, for a King's burden.
The king of Norway
sat in his bathroom cleaning his fingernails
not for him to go see a manicurist
he might have more money than me, but is modest
about his inheritance
He had a shower looked in the mirror: am I fat?
thinking of taking up cycling, but thought
walking all the corridors in his castle would suffice
If outside people stopped and stared
The king hated small talk but after breakfast
an ambassador who would visit presents his credential,
say things like: Norway is a...

Siren Song
He listens to her lilting song
Carried above the turbulence
But the passage is too clearly wrong
With his voyage not making sense
He stumbles across a heaving deck
To marvel as the Siren sings
The albatross strung from his neck
A dead weight with its dangling wings
He spots the Siren on a rock
As his ship shatters on a reef
Somehow he does not feel the shock
But realizes life is brief.
Carried above the turbulence
But the passage is too clearly wrong
With his voyage not making sense
He stumbles across a heaving deck
To marvel as the Siren sings
The albatross strung from his neck
A dead weight with its dangling wings
He spots the Siren on a rock
As his ship shatters on a reef
Somehow he does not feel the shock
But realizes life is brief.

Ostara
When you think earth has died,
She has been fertizled,
Gods of sun and moon will shine.
Humans come out to play,
Rabbits all breed away,
Coming December, this child of mine.
She has been fertizled,
Gods of sun and moon will shine.
Humans come out to play,
Rabbits all breed away,
Coming December, this child of mine.

The Viking Queen
as hoarfrost overtakes the cold,
a sherbet ice-milk, magenta, coloring
covers the aloof- hardened feeling,
as the ice Pirates,
signal their departure
there will be no time to summon the reverent love,
as the unprotected shoreline changes color,
a Claymore will be accorded all deity,
carrying its engravers endorsement,
of the Order of St. John the Devine
walking between burning buildings,
the shrilling sounds of polished blades,
hide in the smoke,
holding ardent devotion to each head and neck, ...

Silence In the Garden
By the star of Orion, neath his belt led astray
Where the river Acheron drowns with dismay
Of far away stares better seen through blind eyes
The gates of far off wonders left us grasping for the skies
Her dark sihllouette feted the masses on high
The echos of degradation oft left murmured with a sigh
A millenia born of madness ushered in to it's lost gate
Left at the alter of darkness with the teaming hands of fate
Her pale veil hung out on the breeze of wanting
Beset by avarice the skies left haunting
For darker horizons...
Where the river Acheron drowns with dismay
Of far away stares better seen through blind eyes
The gates of far off wonders left us grasping for the skies
Her dark sihllouette feted the masses on high
The echos of degradation oft left murmured with a sigh
A millenia born of madness ushered in to it's lost gate
Left at the alter of darkness with the teaming hands of fate
Her pale veil hung out on the breeze of wanting
Beset by avarice the skies left haunting

Water Maiden
Under dappled moonlight
I saw her bathing there
This awe inspiring sight
Of this maiden fair
Her hair of spun gold
Cascaded down her back
She stood both proud and bold
A beacon amidst the black
In the moon’s glow
Her skin an ethereal hue
All of her did show
And a hunger in me grew
I waded in the water
Heedless of the wet
This love would give no quarter
Until my lust was met
She welcomed me with a hand
That slipped in mine so fair
And close did we so stand
Both wet and...
