(Note to the reader: the lines indicate change of first-person view) Part 6 As I woke up, I felt the familiar world around me, yet more painful than ever. The funeral was yesterday, but I felt Maggie’s presence still with me. Perhaps from our last encounter, I am not sure. I just know that I… Continue reading A Vampire in the Confessional – Part 6

I'm an ex-catholic alter boy who is still a "in-the-coffin" vampire. I realized my hunger (thirst?) for blood at the end of the previous millenium, and I am still trying to understand myself.
Crusaders – Section 1
They always came on a Sunday afternoon. They dressed the same, spoke the same, and had the same plan. Each time, I would warn them about their actions, citing it as soliciting. But they truly thought that their mission from God superseded the laws here. I had almost had it with these people. At least… Continue reading Crusaders – Section 1
A Vampire in the Confessional – Part 5
(Note to the reader: the lines indicate change of first-person view) Part 5 ———— “Inmate or Patient, what am I? I need out of here!” I yelled as loud as I can, hoping in vain. “Hey, you in there.

A Vampire in the Confessional – Part 4
(Note to the reader: the lines indicate change of first-person view)I stood in the shower, trying to wash away my sins and this nagging guilt.

(Note to the reader: the lines indicate change of first-person view)————“Hey, I know what killed her. You got to listen to me.” I pleaded, sure that he would open his mind up a little.
A Vampire in The Confessional (part 2)
“Do you want your absolution, my son?” he asked, causing me to turn back around. “Just put it on my tab, I’m nowhere near being absolved.” I then left the dark confessional, and the light inside the church seemed to be just a little brighter. As I knelt at the communion rail, I felt that… Continue reading A Vampire in The Confessional (part 2)
A Vampire in The Confessional
(Once again, I put my religious rambling warning before this piece.) Ashes on my forehead, I start to walk out of the church tonight. I pass by the confessional, and remember the 3 months of sins that I want to get off of my chest. I get into the line, which has tripled in length… Continue reading A Vampire in The Confessional
A Little Bit of Perspective About Valentine’s Day
(Warning: this is a fictionalized account of the Valentine’s Day’s Origin, and it is rooted in religion. This is like Disney’s take on any of their children’s movies… stemmed from a few facts, and under a lot of imagination-based influence) I wake up groggy, shackled to this dark, humid cage for yet another day. I… Continue reading A Little Bit of Perspective About Valentine’s Day
Coping with Violent Urges
I know I’m not the only person out here who has violent urges…nor am I the worst, first, or last to deal with this. But I know when my thirst overcomes me, and I catch myself staring at people…especially when they hurt themselves, and bleeding. As a libra, I like to seek balance and order.… Continue reading Coping with Violent Urges
