Eclipse of the Moon
tenderized neck bone ~
the ancient one sinks her pulse
dire with sharpened fangs
perplexed her face drains
from purity to pallid ~
eclipse of the moon
she weeps at her wake
arrayed in satiny black
shakes herself to sleep
the blood moon brings her
a perpetual nightmare
candles of his eyes
her tears fail to stain
and soon she must grow hungry
his fate her fate now
snow white, razor sharp
piercing her first victim hurts
the first time the worst
