Notes About The Poem

- Vampire -

~ the traceless figures - leave the deepest traces ~
                                                 quote by poet

                                                A spark was lit
                                             of foreign energies
                                         the flame of wickedness
                                           - a vampire epidemic
                                               The evil demons
                                        somewhat pale, admittedly
                                            Bloody Mary - cheers
                                Cold and cruel they satisfy their thirst
                                   A beast of the night and darkness
                                    which are vulnerable to sunlight
                                   I swear the flame's fidelity is torn
                                    of these night stalking creatures
                                                
                                              they party all night
                                     bloody foul-smelling corpse shirt -
                                             red carpet dress code

Your vampire poem is right on the mark. It should do well. As for my poem Stealing a rainbow, we all know it's impossible, so love is unattainable.
