they eat by day
and sleep by night.
for vampires, something’s
just not right.

could it be they’re
hiding something?
for their sake, I hope
it’s nothing.

if at first you
don’t know why,
ask “is the sun
in the sky?”

for once you will
be frightened;
not at dark, but
at night’s end.

you’ll stop and wonder
if it’s true.
but remember,
they’re after you!
