April 4, 2003 (The Sunday Herald) - A group of Chilean farmers are hunting vampires after their chickens died mysteriously. The farmers, from Donihue, claimed 200 were found with all the blood drained from their bodies. A police spokesman said: "The farmers are very scared. They organised a group and went out to hunt what they believe is a vampire.

Feeling the pain,
Seeing the blood,
Not knowing how to heal either,
Looking on and hiding the shame,
Wondering when the tears will flood,
Seeking the truth, finding lies and wanting neither.

Life in it's endless progression,
Tearing at your soul,
The fear welling from your memories,
Retreating, hiding, burying yourself in regression,
The heart within beating slowly, dark and cold,
Spending your nights in empty graves, dwelling in cemetaries.

Who are you? What to do?

She stands at the junction of the road,
The moon is clear and bright.
She chooses her quarry carefully,
Her prey must be just right.

She spies a young man walking by,
With a strong and confident gait.
She decides her feast will come from him,
No longer will she wait.

She follows him to a night club,
It vibrates with a pulsing beat.
She gazes across the dance floor,
His gentle eyes and hers meet.

She moves with slow and sensuous steps,
Her walk becomes a tease.

It feels
Like a part of your soul's
been ripped
from your body
shredded
without a care
and tossed out a ten story window
you feel like you want to explode
like your mind wants to empty
but it can't find a way to vent
and its hard
to sit still
and wait for the moment
when everything
works out right
