"THE POLITICS OF VAMPIRES"

"THE POLITICS OF VAMPIRES"

In the crimson hollow of anticipation
The blood begins to boil
And the stealth involved
Curtails the infidelity
Where the cursed cry
And the uncaring fly high on the adulation
Of other sculptors
And artistic butchers
Where words bleed
Cheaply paraphrasing
That which leaves holes in the souls
Of the Vampires
Original neck-biting
And back-stabbing
The sinister undercurrent
Of bloody politics
Intent
And powers
Ultimate
Corruption.....

Tony Taylor   (Chicago)

Yo T what can I say about this awesome write, well vampires are my favorite of all the old school monsters and always an interesting topic to read write watch etc. What I think about as I read along with your title is the evolving vampire from that old school vampire I mentioned. They have a lot more characteristics now so many differences in every story they are more civilized than that animal instinct to feed as they use to be. Enough of my rambling loved this write you are a word smith and just stellar at choosing words and phrasing it allstars brother. Peace.
