Vampire

Venetian blinds shuttered
Vivacious lust a fix
Veins throb crimson allure
Visceral dread repels
Victorian specter
Vexing savoir-faire lure
Vampire's bloodletting

Thank you, sweet Andrea! I've entered around 6 of his Pleiades contests and yet have I been chosen, S.V. made me realize when she said I should have won on Piano, I trust her judgement. Perhaps the sponsor chooses to drag his personal business in judging. You're all I need! ;D

This one is brilliant, especially your use of the letter V....vivacious lust a fix.... so correct, their lust for blood... its the toxic vampires I worry about to be honest, trying to suck my energy.. have a few around sadly.. I stay away from them..

Hi beautiful soul i find vampire tales so interesting and fun to read and i must say you’ve done this form so effortlessly in a creative manner using such sumptuous diction that fits the vampire theme so eloquently! I love the 3rd and last line and every line too how you’ve painted imagery so vividly is so impressive. Goodluck for the contest

Brilliant Pleiades, Anaya. Great emotions on a vampire. I am not following contest but having seen another, I'm supposing this is for a contest. If so, best for a win.

Yes, it's for the Pleiades on Vampire contest. It's getting closer to a favorite holiday here in the USA (Halloween) this is a pre-Halloween spirited poem, I am delighted you found it to your liking, Victor! Thank you xhugs

Dear Anaya, your verse is expressed with verve! Your vexing vampire is brought to life with vibrant imagery and great V word choices. I adore the old world feeling to your pleiades. "Venician blinds shuttered" Perfetto! Also “Victorian specter” and the use of the French word “savoir-faire”. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Susan, old world feeling precisely what I wished to capture. I've been in the mood as you can tell in my "Piano" Pleiades! Thank you, I am delighted you enjoyed the vampire vibe! lol :D
