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.

Hey thanks
Thanks Lyz, i’m so thrilled and more inspired with your comments guys.
stars fill your sky Papi, from Ann
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
I love it I love it
I love it I love it
