What is the one thing a vampire must do? Drink blood, and if one can’t !!! 4 stanzas of 4 lines each.
THE UNHAPPY VAMPIRE
Michele Lourie c 2016
I’ve been kicked out of my coffin
So now what can I do?
I’ve had to turn my cape in
And I’m forbidden to say ‘Boo!’
I’ve been to see the dentist
To have my fangs filed down
If I go to Transylvania
I’ll be laughed right out of town.
My face is clean of powder
And I’ve stopped wearing all black,
I’m not sleeping any better
Since I stopped using the rack.
So I’m awfully unhappy
And my tears they tend to flood,
I’m a sad de-licensed Vampire
Who faints at the sight of blood.
