“Undead To The World”.
You put your right hand in
you put your right hand out
you put your right hand in
and you shake it all about…
At this rate we’ll be here all night!
Vamp on over here, Sugar,
and give me some of that neck!

Shall We Dance?
Written for dVerse Poets Quadrille #208 –
“Undead To The World”.
Heaving breasts beckon
A throbbing vein divine
Come to my side, darling Vampira
On your body I wish to dine
Eyes like burning embers glow
Skin smooth as fine alabaster
Waltz across the dance floor, my Vampira
Into the lifeless arms of your master

Fade To Black
Written for dVerse Poets Quadrille #202
– Hello Darkness –
where we are asked to embrace the dark
in 44 poetic words.
Death creeps
in the night,
hiding in the
darkest of places
where junkies
shoot up
in the alleys
by dim light.
But no one
is around
to see
the relief
on their faces
when they fade
to black
and softly give up
the fight.
