There was a vampress
Who had a very bright set of teeth

In the cold dampness
There was a vampress
Who's spirit shined very coldly

And she's not taking names
You're giving your heart
You're handing over to her
What is not the earth's

I saw her wailing there
And my conscience said to me
She takes the lively dead
And makes a home inside their heads

I saw her wailing there
She wasn't waiting for a ticket
She was waiting for the riverman
To take them under

I...never saw them die
I...never saw her reach into her inside
Then...under the earth is where they went
Then...she could return from the pit from which she was sent [comments] => 1 [counter] => 144 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Lee [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Interesting. I don't know why no one has commented. I *feel* like it needs darker imagery if you're doing the vampyre thing, but that could just be me. Keep writing.
