No smoking, no dialing no 800 numbers, all dishes must washed, dried, and put away not left to drip, no bringing girls home, never put a cup down without a coaster, and if I’m going to be late- 2 rings. No killing vampires.

A strong child, child nonetheless, caught in fires

Of a world not made for a Blood Hound’s Love Hound.

Remember Rule Seven: No Killing Vampires

She came from a world of brains and debate

They put in his young hand— a blood-covered stake

A strong child, child nonetheless, caught in fires.

She cries in the flames of the werewolf’s curse;

He taught her to kill— for better or for worse.

Remember Rule Seven: No Killing Vampires

She was going to be a Barrister…

Now only he argues— she is the killer—

A strong child, child nonetheless, caught in fires

Of persecuting their persecutors.

She led him to peace— but got lost in murders…

Remember Rule Seven: No Killing Vampires

You must leave— he told her— you’re close but far

From this world. Go— but don’t change— know what you are:

A strong child, child nonetheless, caught in fires.
