Vampire
Masked in kindness you appear
Freshly dewed like roses on a spring morning
Polite and reserved, tiptoeing just enough
A god of adaptation
Thorough above all else
You finish your commencing, drawing out of me
Like an orgasm
The obsession you unknowingly craved
You plucked but all my feathers whilst silently grinning
Observing your work with the majesty you exude
Trivial matters in your world of four leaved clovers
Play with my innards some more and gut me at last
I am aware of the insufficiency
My soul that drips from your fangs incessantly
Cannot possibly be suitable feed
Manifest in me your desire and put me out of my misery
I’ll oblige yet again without being given choice
Staring at you in the oblique
Deep I grasp into your marrow
