Halloween slam poetry

Sucker For Blood

I’m such a sucker for blood. I’m so in love with the blood.

Give me just one drop and I don’t think I can stop.

No taste for garlic. The mere mention of it makes my stomach turn.

If I don’t avoid contact with it my flesh will burn.

I can’t help but make a mess with the taste of flesh.

Of course I am highly allergic to the sunlight.

One bite would really make my night. Oh how my fangs grip flesh on site.

Take a step and come stand within an inch of me.

One touch of my eternal kiss and you’ll live for centuries.

An eternal flame. My soul is forever in the fire.

The hominus nocturna. I am a vampire.
