The earth weeps tears
to fill an ocean.
As oceans fill with waste,
no one takes notice.
As icebergs melt and crumble,
no one stops to listen.
But once a deadly virus appears,
the world wakes in an uproar.
The danger has hit home.
Anger raises the waves.
Tears soften the white sand.
Fear hides behind clouds,
marching forth like a band.
I know he is here.
I hide from his face.
He’s coming for me.
Clouds quicken the pace.
His descent inspires awe and fear.
He’ll sweep into town like a dove.
His ire can move mountains.
For me, he moves the sky above.

Oasis, Florida is a quiet and cozy town
harboring a terrifying secret.
What evil lies in wait
for the innocent residents and tourists?
PREY FOR THE DEAD
From here I can see
the wonderful sea.
I step through the door
and stand at the shore.
The sand is soft beneath my feet.
I’m sure I’ve found a pleasant treat.
Then a metal door swipes across the sky,
removing the sunshine from the blue sky.
Trapped in a replica of my town,
I watch the sand turn a shade of brown.
The longed-for peace won’t be won
since I’ve trusted the wrong one.
PREY FOR THE DEAD
Blood red sky at night.
Watched with sailor’s bated breath.
A vampires’ delight.
THE DEAD GAME
by Susanne Leist
Red is the sun’s last ray
as it sets for the day.
Red is my vision as
I watch you play.
Red is the desire
I feel for you each day.
Red is your blood now
flowing through my veins.

I want to taste your sweet nectar
and lose myself in your fragrance.
Your blood will be mine
as I pluck you from the vine.
