men and women have long necks to bite through
and you never see a long neck studded
in a leather upholstery, rivets along the seams
maybe freckles crowding against the shade of ear or hairline,
but never a tan.
to put your finger hard against the skin would leave your test in red,
not white.
no, men and women have long necks to leave ungaurded
the stretch is too far to patrol, they leave it for public use
to wipe slimey tears from
to straighten after some wind
to have a nice hollow place for their heart to rise into
as it so often makes need to do.

I have definitely written ten chapters of the vampire book, and more is flowing. I'll post the first one so you can see.
i like this one and i'm super excited to read the mountains of poetry you'll write in china.
I am addicted to your poetry like I'm addicted to hot tea; it soothes the soul in that same cream-and-sugar way. :)
