I. The Vamp Inside.

If I were to theeward so amoured

As thou so, art to Me allured

Would I command thee to hear my voice

Uninvited, thy space encroach

"Raise your veil, make show of face"

Explore thy Heart with bitter reproach

Make merry and laugh,

despite public gaze, and in presence of Staff;

Sip from thy lips. 

Till drunkenness doth make 

Love versus Lust

Which sport shall we take?

Lust every time! should be my reply 

That other is extinct

Due to decline  

of unwavering Heart

and lack of fresh blood on the vine.

Then lo! come yet awhile, let us peramble.

Perchance it goes, we may tangle.

For then only might thou decide

If I be Rogue, Player, Vagabond ,

Or Taster of New wine.......
