Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Your Favorite Habit-Forming TV Show - Poetry Contest
Sponsor: Tom Quigley 


Beneath the shadows Buffy prowls to use “Mr. Pointy” her favorite stake
Under the tunnels she finds the blood suckers and lives she does take
Falling in love with Angel who is a good vampire with an actual soul
Feeling compassion for the worst killer in history sure took a toll
Young love was found as he fell in deep love with her too

The bad thing is if he feels one moment of true joy they were through
He found that joy and became the evil man as he’s ever been
Everyone in Sunnydale became enemies of this once true friend

Vindictive by nature he traveled out and went on a killing spree
After a few weeks he found his way back to the arms of Buffy
Memories they share but they can no longer be together
Poor Buffy had hoped they would be soul-mate’s forever
In the cemetery is where her and the crew slays vampires
Revealing the madness of also sending them to hell by fire
Each of them help; Willow, Xander and her mentor Mr. Giles

Searching for ways to save the day they travel for many miles
Lurking in darkness, Spike, also known as “William the Bloody”,
Attacked and killed innocents for years, yet fell in love with Buffy
Yet another vampire in love with the enemy who won’t slay a friend
Every day preventing apocalypses while to hell vampires she did send
Regardless of the chaos and love triangles she saved the world in the end

Very enjoyable and nicely done rendition! Haven't watched it, but I gather David Boreanaz of "Bones" got his start here--think he was the soulful angel...thanks for participating!

Did the show end on a really good note? I hated the ending of Lost!! I love vampire shows but the only one i stayed strong with was True Blood on premium movie channel. It's fun that you liked Buffy so much. This is very cute. Mine is on zombies. Stay tuned. it's not posted yet!!
