Maybe Dracula

was a phlebotomist.

In which case,

he was only doing his job,

and pretty well, at that!
your empty words are not heavy
…they’re  hollow
it’s the hidden meanings that trip me
though your sharp words fail me
they may slice but can’t cut me
and if I were to fall
I’ll slip down your tongue
…hang off your lip
if you were to speak at all
the moon smiles at me
somewhat covered by dark clouds
mesmerises me.
