Paint your face all black and white
A harlequin monster to walk the night
and Shadowwork your deepest fears

A puppet in the master's hand
To rape and burn in this forever land
Your soul to cry, choke back the tears

Open your eyes
And breathe in the hatred
Swallow the lies
And swim in abasement
But don't ever let go of me

Wine like blood spill down your throat
You're lost like love, forlorn and remote
And viscious dreams play into desire

Flaming tongues scream out your name

WAR OF THE DRAGONS

TALE OF ALISHKA

Psychiatrists are aware that there exists a behavior known as "clinical vampirism," which is a syndrome involving the delusion of actually being a vampire and feeling the need for blood. This arises not from fiction and film but from the erotic attraction to blood and the idea that it conveys certain powers, although the actual manifestation of the fantasy may be influenced by fiction. It develops through fantasies involving sexual excitement.

October 13, 2008 -- A complete and authentic vampire killing kit -- made around 1800 and complete with stakes, mirrors, a gun with silver bullets, crosses, a Bible, holy water, candles and even garlic, all housed in a handsome American walnut case with a carved cross on top -- hammered for $14,850 at the Jimmy Pippen estate sale held Oct. 3-4 in the brand new Natchez Convention Center.

To live, to die, to rise again

Like a corpse with a Christ Compex: born again with immortal blood, setting loose upon the world a killer, a thief of life

Keeping the coffin builders busy

Am I beyond redemption? Beyond forgiveness?

Yes, I am, for I love what I do. Drinking from the Scarlet river, holding the power of life and death

I want more, always more.

An occational twinge of guilt, quickly lost in the heat of the kill.

Repress the urge to jump to the hightest point and shout with all my might
