Read with a Transylvanian Accent hehehe
The Thirteenth Friday

I drink of thee only
with mine eye-
teeth

succulent are your veins
you hold the reins
of my desire
creating fire
within my very being

I clutch you closely
as you become limp to my touch
your juices of life
drip upon my tongue
and we have nothing to fear
but the daylight
and the power of the stake
upon our hearts

drawing your life into me
yet renewing us with my hidden power
the old you fades into history
and together we unite with this hour

eternal life is for the weak
eternal death is for those like you and me
as we wander about
a realm of our quaking
drinking in our surroundings
forever more than
the sum of our parts

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

This one has a certain parasitic feeling.
Nicely written. It really does contain a romantic yet dark sense. I like!!

Hey dog, did you see the size of that chicken!?
