There once was a vampire quite fat, <br />Who was partial to fricassee of rat? <br />He liked to drink blood, but rat he did favour, <br />It really was quite peculiar behaviour. <br /> <br />But Vladimir had more problems than that, <br />He no longer could turn himself, into a bat, <br />He still had the need to hang upside down, <br />So would stand on his head, in a dressing gown. <br /> <br />He went on a date with a zombie, of late, <br />Who though recently deceased, he really did rate, <br />It was going quite well, till they got up to dance, <br />When, Zelda the Zombie went into a trance. <br /> <br />She was still for a moment but started to shake, <br />And then parts of her body began to break, <br />Her arms fell off first and then her head, <br />But the loss of her legs stopped the evening dead. <br /> <br />Vladimir kept his composure quite well, <br />He was disappointed of course but you couldn’t tell, <br />He picked her up gently, and sent her home in a cab, <br />He has a date with her next week, at Frankfurters Lab.<br /><br />Damian Cranney<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/date-with-a-vampire/
