Real Vampires Never had it so Good
Dracula had an excellent agent,
Publicist extraordinaire,
Selling the masses on his glamour
And his wicked savoir-faire;
Modern undead rock-star heroes
Fascinate and rake the bucks,
But for ordinary vampires,
Sans PR-men, life still sucks—
We’re just rodents to the public,
Flying hair-snags, guano kings,
Rabies-ridden, squeaking, dog-faced,
Lots of other rotten things,
Never mind we were the first,
The inspiration for the rest—
Love to give usurping phonies
Juicy stakes for every pest,
Take back our eternal midnight,
Sip the hemoglobin wine,
Fatten up our hard-earned bloodlines,
Happy Halloween!
Awesome, my friend, and I think I’m already batty, so no driving is needed…:) Happy Halloween! xo
Excellent! We clearly live in the same belfry. 😀

Happy Halloween to you dear Kathryn.

It was wonderfully quiet here! We have very few children even living in our neighborhood, and I guess those all go to other neighborhoods with more youthful constituencies for trick-or-treating! We didn’t hear a peep.
draculala better go to a blood bank cause he’s running on empty, happy days
He’ll undoubtedly be tank-full when he gets there! 😉
not with the blood of virgins i can assure you
Loved it, Katheryn. Have a Happy Halloween!
Every day is its own sort of Halloween when I can look in the mirror and see someone less and less familiar! Age does seem to have a variety of adventures in store for me. 😉
Excellent post. Enjoyed it very much.
I’m glad you found it amusing, my dear! 🙂
Poem extraordinaire upon Count Vladamir…
We can always count on the Count. Ooh, that reminds me of the fabulous Count von Count of Sesame Street–‘ONE! One poem about vampires! TWO! Two bat wings flapping in the night breeze!!’ 😉
