It’s a magical night for a party.
Beautiful couples dance
between the glass statues.
Fancy gowns drape the perfect bodies.
The glasshouse shimmers in the moonlight.
The party is perfect.
A little too perfect.

WILL WE FALL PREY TO THE DEAD?
Brutal winds follow close on my heels,
Thunder and lightning join the crusade.
Fluorescent lights paint the night sky,
Rings of orange, yellow, and red.
A vortex of horror in unending circles
Makes its way to the small town of Oasis,
Where I will be waiting with a sword in hand,
Secure in the knowledge Wolf won’t win.
The Watchers have joined the battle.
They stand on the hill beyond,
Their raincoats flapping in the wind,
Concealing their cache of weapons.
We will protect Linda from the devil,
An army standing strong against the winds.
The Father clutches his bible of spells,
Ready to cast the evil from our town.
We have come together as one,
Humans, vampires, and human vampires.
The last battle on this earthly planet,
Which will determine our combined fate.
Linda clings to her friends,
Huddled together in the storm.
Will she choose wisely and correctly?
Will she choose me above The Dead?
The time has come for the showdown.
Time has slowed to a halt.
We raise our weapons above our heads,
Waiting for evil to make its final appearance.
Wolf has been given a new body,
But I recognize his deadly soul.
A new package for an old one
Does not change the battle to be won.
Our games have just begun.

RED HOT WAVES
Red hot waves lap at the shore,
bringing with them blood and gore.
Paradise has come to an end.
Death is right around the bend.
Florida will never be the same
once we play The Dead Game.

ALIVE AT NIGHT
The wood floor creaks.
I slowly turn around.
Where are The Dead freaks?
I hear no other sound.
The lights flicker.
Can the rumors be true?
I feel sicker.
The Dead will take me too.
I can see their faces.
Dark eyes stare at me.
They take their places.
I’ll never be free.
I run through the hall,
But I’m running in place.
I give up and fall.
A grin covers his face.
He leers at me.
Eyes glowing bright red.
A sight to see.
I flee toward my bed.
He lifts me in his arms.
We fly into the dark night.
I won’t fall for his charms.
The Dead come alive at night.

AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT
Sunset brings shadows with the night,
Birds of prey springing into flight.
As a hue of red paints the night air,
A high-pitched howl sounds too near.
Residents hide behind locked doors,
As trails of blood seep through the floors.
The mansion rumbles with laughter,
Loud music reaches each rafter.
Gargoyles watch as quiet as a mouse,
As limousines line a path to the house.
At the harsh stroke of midnight,
Dancers freeze in the moonlight.

CAN LUCK SAVE US?
Can luck save the residents of Oasis
from rogue vampires desperate for blood?
Time will tell.

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
Tourists stroll the beaches.
Shouts of joy flow from the Oasis Hotel
as guests frolic in the swimming pools.
You might think this is a paradise but take care.
Never trust the calm before the storm.

PREY FOR THE DEAD
He might be in disguise.
I recognize his eyes.
He has come back for me.
He’ll never set me free.

QUEEN OF THE DEAD
The coldness wraps around me.
My hair drips icicles down my neck.
I shiver in dread of my future.
My future as the queen of The Dead.

PAST THE POINT OF NO RETURN
Down the rabbit hole we go.
Far beneath the earth’s surface.
Where The Dead wait for their savior.
We fall farther.
Deeper.
Past the point of no return.

PASSION NOT HUMAN
My cold fingers will run down her hot body.
She will wake to the sight of my glowing eyes
and experience passion not human.
The dark prince will take her in his arms
and place her on his black steed.
I am Wolf.

SWEET LIKE CANDY
Sweet like candy.
I want you handy.
Lie next to me at night.
Succumb without a fight.
A vampire’s delight.
Please be my guiding light.

RIDE WITH ME
There is something not quite right.
Meetings are held at midnight.
Dark shadows creep the street.
You don’t know whom you’ll meet.
Take me from here.
The Dead, I can’t bear.

A VAMPIRE SUMMIT
The peaceful vampire summit
at Chateau Frontenac, Quebec,
turns deadly as the boardwalk explodes.
