Personal Ad

Are you the listener
in the audience
I've been searching for,
the reader I've been looking
for all my life?

You, dark haired,
woman of mystery
You witch
and vampire,

Partaker of dark secrets
and desires
like myself,

and like myself,
have you laid in bed
with vampires and addicts,
drug addicted to blood, sex,
and opium?

Are you, just like myself,
searching, like the vampires
in The Hunger for flesh
to drink from?

I think so,
and if so,
We need to meet,
in person.
