The Modern Version

The subtlest sort of vampiry
Will leave you with blood-full veins,
But drain you of identity
Till nothing of “You” remains.

This is a very interesting point, Steve. I have some theories on what/who the bloodsucking entity is. The beauty of poetry is that it can be interpreted in different ways for the both the reader and the writer...and both could be right! Blessings, Donna
