vampires
they told me there we no such things as vampires.
a good friend of mine has a girlfriend whos alergic to light. she has medicine
for it but tries to stay out of the sun anyway. shes died her hair all black
and goes around listening to music about death and destruction while dressed
all in black.
my friend aj back home occasionally goes to the supermarket. at the meat
counter you can buy a pint of pigs blood for $2.35. he drinks it for the
protein. tastes weird he says. not awful though. last year he used to cut
designs into his wrists with a razor blade.
traci just dyed her hair violet. black. or a combination of something like
that. shes begun to take a syringe and draw blood out of people and then drink
it. shes only had two people to agree so far. she has four parallel scars on
her left arm. probably from a fork. deep. shes agreed to make a small slit in
her wrist for me so i can drink her blood. if i want.
my girlfriend wants to bite my neck and drink my blood. except her teeth arent
sharp enough. and she doesnt want to lose me. but she fantasizes about hiding
a razor blade in her hand while we kiss and cutting open my neck so she can
drink my blood. she cuts her own wrists so she can drink her own blood.
another friend wanted to stab her boyfriends foot and watch the blood drip
down and soak into the carpet. she was playing with a knife at the time. but
she didnt do it.
someone once told me vampirism is a fetish and that there is a whole network
of people who agree to have a small incision made on the lower arm so that
their blood can be sucked by another.
mike calls laura a psychological vampire. he says shes read so much about them
and wants to become one in so many ways. that she actually has. psychologically
that is.
i dont really know if real vampires exist. i know people id call vampires
because they drink blood. or prefer to stay out of the sunlight. or are very
dark. but theyre not vampires in the classical sense. but then again one can
get addicted to anything. and maybe a fetish will turn into a need.
my algebra teacher once said the only things in life he was sure of were death
and taxes. and he wasnt altogether sure of the former either. it hadnt happened
to him yet.
take it or leave it. everything above is true. everyone involved is either in
high school or college. they dont really live dark lives. though from the
outsiders they might. theyre just people who like sex blood and drugs. id call
them vampires. though only laura and jen know anything about them.
