PRINCES OF THE VAMPIRES

 

Deep daunting eerie emotions

Snares and cruel whispers in the dark

The moon’s faded and her children fade

It’s the Vampires cruel breath

Her throat’s dry

Switching away the galaxy

Spreading her invisible net in the dark

Least the prey escapes

 

Down the dark path is her day’s target

Through the wind, the winding drunkard

Trembling across the creaking bridge in rain

Alone walking–walking home

 

It’s still raining–still raining

He’s still breathing–still breathing

Still wondering and breathing–still

 

Still disturbed and confessing confusions

Inhaling darkening elements

Awareness long lost and being robbed

Across the cheek, the draught’s coming

He’s feeling it, the imminence

A herald to bite and suck

A herald to conceive the unborn yet

 

He’s staggering, trembling still!

A bleeding conscripted silhouette

It’s the non-believers journey

A golden black eye in the dark

Looking hard, but the way’s broken

Though he’s trying

Won’t they let him exceed home?

Or simply is it the bottle influence?

 

Had drank enough, but the cup couldn’t pass

Walked enough, but couldn’t stop

The non- believers journey

The new moonlight of life

 

He swallowed, the bolted size of fear

Trickles of sweat, clots of blood

And the bitterness of dry whiskey

Adding to that, more unrecognized fear

The air’s thick and consumed

He’s not alone

 

Red glowing eyes teaming up closer from the woods

 

Step by step, breathing still

Step by step, doubtfully going

And finally ahead heading along, he heard

A rasping voice’s calling

Inhuman in its creaking tone

 

“Todash–todash, its time you come my love

Come, let’s savoir you up with blood

Here come! Drink this commandment

From your brother’s and sisters reeking throats

Come, join us!”

 

The unseen voice has spoken and he was down

A naked blood tainted face on top

Stella, the never found

Stella, one who broke his heart

Had disappeared, they’ve said

 

And more vampires came circling him

Light stamping feet and chanting

The moons dim trapped with dark clouds

Stars are blown and the dark’s doom

He could see all that

Could feel her breast pinning his chest

The voice’s from beneath

 

“Us, us, for us to drink

Drink your required measure Misses and let us– the same”

 

He felt the smell of old blood

Saw the red dawning glow of eyes

The deep set jaws of sharp teeth reaching

And her hair thatching across his face

More choking smell

But still he couldn’t resist the eyes

They had their pretty magnetizing fantasy

Of a new home never known

Of an old friend comeback

Reaching to convert a wandering soul

 

Finally he accepted the eyes

Loved them to their deepest nature

He felt the establishment sinking

Teeth sinking so sweet and gentle

Eyes closed and lost in the maze of the unknown

 

When he opened them, he was complete

Around they were waiting

He stood and she reached his hand

And all together they marched

Through the thickness of darkness

Valleys of blood and cliffs

Heading to another spoil

Their emperor exceedingly rising!

This is excellent brilliant

This is excellent brilliant work in this genre, one of the best I have ever read.

So many lines to savor… from beginning to end.

Congratulations, once again… I look forward to reading you.

there are some spellings the moon’s faded and her children fade (fabulous!) and don’t you mean non-believers?

also please (for the love of God) use breasts instead of boobs. that destroys the elegance of this poem.

Whoow

I’m really happy that you’ve found great interest in this peom, never watched Twilight, but the posters i’ve seen have really brought me in that Vampires saga. Reading it again and what you just suggested has made it complete i guess, if i won’t think of any to add. Thank you very lot–Kailashana, love the sound of you name by the way, i look foward on reading some of yours.

Wow Ephriam, what took hold of you and turned you into
such a wonderful story teller, this is so vividly described
and has so many wonderful bits of description.

I was leaving,
well I hadn’t logged in, and wasn’t going to, till I caught sight of this.
Wow! You have the seeds of beautiful poetry there to nurture
and we gladly applaud your efforts, loudly, hoping to see yet more,
and more of this quality and experienced excitement.

There may be small things that could be spruced up
to be understood best, but this is great stuff dear Papi,
I look forward to your future poetry.

I shall look closer at it perhaps later!

Love from your friend Ann of Norway.
(-20%C (official) and -40%C on the way!!!)

Yes Anna K is a good poet, to put it mildly!!

Now its stunning, refreshingly wonderfully innovative and exciting
so full of wonderful phrases of metaphor of such brilliant shining surprise
to us in our comfortable mundane vocabularies, such a dash and thunder
of rhetoric that we are swooning in its novelty.

You can become something I know it. You have the gift of creative
thought within the words of the
English language and renew our intensity of vision, yes Ephriam this
is good and so exciting I must jump up and do a little dance right now
to celebrate with you? Okay?

One two three………..

Love and stars fill your sky Papi, from Ann
