Dracula Part 2: Sufferings

SUFFERINGS

stabbed at the dumpling…
   cut the head off the chicken
...kitchen staff impaled*

Harker’s tipsiness...
   ruddy wine blushes on neck
...teeth marks like fork tines

imagined in dark
   mind of Dracula...scheming
closed lips...tongue beating

5/2/2018

*to fix in an inescapable or helpless position
