Hunt

100 days in coffin and reborn
the vampire sought new blood
but in the vicinity was nothing new
the same old creatures of the wood

the thirst burned her throat
yet the calm disguise ,a practiced skill
in her poise was a gradual thunder
that prepared her for the imminent kill

wandering she caught a glimpse
Of a creature in a new light
And sensed the blood in his veins,
Rushing hot, to her delight

On her heels, she went close
Only to be maddened by his youth
By the sheer dance in his shadows
And his silhouette so uncouth

A ruthless creature of night
He sensed her secret presence
And moved enough to let the winds
Inflame her more with his fragrance

Breathing heavily she licked her lips
As she neared her delicious prey
And in a swift move he thrust her back
To a tree from where she couldn't get away

Gasping for breath she fought for release
But he held her tight until she’d relent
And then they stared in each other’s eyes
While drawing in each other’s scent

And that one moment of contact
Ran tremors deep down her belly
But her thirst got the best of her
And she aimed for his throat of jelly

Heather

A shot in the dark that left him bleeding

An error in judgment that had left him seething

Poor Kim, why did he ever sip in after dark

In the name of incense, ecstasy he was breathing

He had had his lessons but he’d still forget

Honesty wouldn’t always honesty beget

Yet again his heart brushed a potent thorn

Daring and bold while he’d still often get

Hardened twice over by the vagaries of weather

In secret, He’ll search in forests for his Heather

And many a flowers he would see and smell

But none would be pretty as his dream’s feather

So He put up a veneer that the worlds demand

He  flits , feels and plays but all too bland

For the intensity of his love is stormy & fatal

Perpetuity if not eternity is his wish & command
