A good friend of mine gave me a box of 200 magnet words (the type that goes on refrigerators) that were "vampire themed". The challenge is to ONLY use the words provided in the box. So far, I have written four poems from this box (the first four below). It was, to say the least, very challenging. The last poem is just a silly thought I had at work. Hope you like this Halloween fare!
_______________________________________
I will rise forever
Hunt by moonlight
Our ancient need to embrace
Immortal with desire
For your love
_____________________________________
I am damned
Demon and human
With bloodlust
Tasting your heart
My teeth thirsting
To pierce your darkness
Save me
From the undead night
______________________________________
I am Vampire
Immortal
The creature parasite
A demon enslaved
Drinking forever the blood
Of the lonely
Lusting to possess you
Your fear tastes so sweet
In my graveyard embrace
You then undead rise
We wander as moonlight will
Eternal
Damned to darkness
Feed me humans too afraid
Of life and desire
Our hunger can never end
______________________________________
I am blackest evil
An enemy to feed on a friend
Destroying your lifetime
Making you a victim
Embrace my dead heart
We will walk our lonely crypt
Taste the blood of angels
And desire moonlight
Forever

Vampire Tan
(or: I'm Smokin' Hot)
Vampires want to suck you dry,
Be you baby, broad, or man.
They like their very pointy teeth,
But boy, they hate to tan.
They won't go to salons to brown
So tanning beds are out.
They like to go where blood is found
And drink it from a spout.
Don't expect them to oil up
Or lie upon a beach.
Expect them all to sleep in dirt
Then suck you like a leech.
Don't laugh at them or at their skin.
Albeit so white and pasty.
Just stand out in the sun all day,
And worry you might be tasty.

Happy Halloween!
