Dracula the Traveler

Dracula would go on adventure
and loved to drink in local culture,
but he discovered, alas,
that strange food gave him gas,
not to mention one heck of an ulcer.

During a weekend in Cincinnati
he met some women who were quite chatty;
but their lewd and crude talking
was really quite shocking
and it simply drove him quite...batty.

In Bucharest, he became fascinated
by a vampire he later dated.
She was a Contessa
whose name was Vein-essa
and she liked her tea de-coffin-ated!

They would travel to museums and shows
and especially enjoy art nouveau;
but they most liked to spend
leisure time with a friend:
the vampire artist Vincent Vein Gogh.

Poor Dracula not only got an ulcer, but met a vampire who would become his assaulter… Beryl

Poor Dracula really had a hard time, didn’t he? Probably should have just stayed in Transylvania safe in his castle with no mirrors! Nice to hear from you, Beryl. Take care.
