Age Doesn’t Matter, Anymore
I died in 1348 of the Black Plague.
You,in the Hundred Years’ War.
I lived in Rome and you in London
We would not have met in life.
Isn’t it wonderful that death renders
life’s barriers vague,
And that our age difference
Truly doesn’t matter anymore?
Your Personal Ad was Far Too Modest
Squid tentacles writhe in your witches brew
I’m enchanted by its toxic fumes!
Your silhouette is classic as you fly on your broom
Against the silver full moon.
But there is one thing I do not understand about you;
Witch of my dreams,
why is it thatIn your personal ad, you did not
Mention that classic whiskered wart
At the end of your long, bony nose?
Get Your Vampire Lore Straight
Sunlight? No, thank you
Dust into dust I shall be,
Snug dark coffin, please
It Was A While Ago
But don’t think I have
Forgotten you, who entered
My Pyramid, then.

comic to the one delivering it.
tragic to the one receiving it.
