at the ball

the vampire queen was on the hunt at the vampire ball
vultures, beasts and demons came to her as if by a call

she transmogrified devils into trolls with one flick
this queen was cagey, incredibly sneaky and slick

in the vampire king’s manor, the ballroom was dimly lit,
gnomes were as at home here as claws and hoofs that fit.

there is a hunger that must be satisfied, this is for sure.
the vampire queen advanced quickly, her motives impure.

hidden in the dark, dank, dismal shadows was the vampire king.
watching the queen with all of his might, her neck quite the thing.

the dance began slowly, as he advanced from her left without genuflect.
She turned and gave him that come-hither look and let him see her neck.
