*giggle*
That's actually a bit funny. I've
never written a vampire story...
but I did write a vampire poem...
simply called "I, The Vampire".

As I wandered through the night,
wishing to be seen by the daylight,
my heart beheld a familiar song
I used to sing when I was young.
I recalled the life I knew before,
thinking back three centuries, maybe more.
My memory was clouded,
my past shrouded.
I was a forgotten mystery.
Forever I’ve wandered through history,
always beholding the moonlight,
never again to see sunlight.
I had been a youth misled,
now I forever walk amongst the undead.
I, the Vampire.

It was meant to be funny, in a Dunsany-esque way :)

Cool poem! What inspired the title? It reminds me of something, but I can't put my finger on what.
