Redecorating: please excuse my abyss and watch your step.

Now, my good man, this is no time for making enemies. ~ Voltaire on his deathbed in response to a Priest asking that he renounce Satan.
The Risen Moon
Beckons
I pass through the field in the dark, the crunch of shattered glass beneath my feet the only sound. The edge of the moon peeks out from behind a shelf of blood-tinged cloud and I have no choice but to run, to hide in the shadows. A second passes, maybe two, and the moon sheds its gauzy veil, its light reflecting off the broken glass in a thousand jagged gleams. There is no escape for me tonight.

We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be. . . Vonnegut, Mother Night
What Lurks Beneath
Nurturing vampire with a downside
Mom's Door
Inspired by the immense number of incubi and succubi on the Rave, I dedicate the following:
Being an Incubus or Succubus isn’t just about the sex. It’s not about being super-hot, or multi-orgasmic, perhaps a nimble fellatrix with the patience of a saint, and maybe just plain nasty. No, and long fingers and stem tying tongues are not what it’s all about, either.
What was I saying?
There is a higher plane where joy and passion, connection and spirituality collide. Imagine combining that sexual experience with ritual, and some sort of grog.
The sex would become entangled with The Divine.
Priestesses in the sacred brothel performed this service on a regular basis. Or, at least, on ordained holidays.
I don’t think they were limited to the men. They had each other, after all.
Never sleep with anyone crazier than yourself. ~ One of Murphy's Laws

LA MúSICA
Country western los mariachis soul jazz salsa opera blues, the blues, reggae hip hop and radio pop the song is love the beat is longing the rhythm is lust the story is loss it’s in my brain it twists my body a gaping need my hole to be filled now a slow desire pulses in my skin looks out from weathered eyes sheltering the music hot and deep within.
N.O.L.A. Spleen, 2004
Featured Lyrics: Written in 1941 and sung by Andrea Bocelli, Dean Martin, The Beatles and by French, Spanish and Mexican crooners, but Chris Isaak does it for me best:
Besame, besame mucho,
Each time I cling to your kiss, I hear music divine,
Besame mucho,
Hold me my darling and say that you'll always be mine.
This joy is something new, my arms enfolding you,
Never knew this thrill before.
Whoever thought I'll be holding you close to me,
Whispering it's you I adore.
Dearest one, if you should leave me,
Each little dream would take wing and my life would be through,
Besame mucho, love me forever and make all my dreams come true..
Prefer a vampire with angst to slash and gash, a vampire whose theme song would be It’s Bad to be Good: Louis over Lestat, Claudia over Louis, Catherine Deneuve over Susan Sarandon in The Hunger, Carmilla over Akasha, Nosferatu over Dracula (close), Spike over the broody guy.
