Vampire

His manic mind this particular night Was dulled by the fractured waning moonlight. Standing alone amongst the monoliths Of stone and marble, cold and spiritless. The sky, all black and bleak, nary a star To behold. Somewhere distant a bizarre Sounding canine howled its mournful distress. A black ominous cloud slithered across The dying lunar orb like a veiled-face Demon lurking in an unholy place. Possessed, his unquietness bestirring Within his tormented soul a craving For human blood. Someone's vitality Will be drained to sustain immortality.

very haunting...try not to repeat "face" and punch up the last line and you have a real dark winner of a verse there! Light & Love
