Abchanchu sneers through the blackness
nature retreats from his sight
For he is the dark
the night
the not living
🌑
With each solemn step
grass dies underfoot
murkiness left behind
no life
just the absence of all
🌑
Even the moon hides
so not to be observed
The apparition consumes
all
that catches his gaze
🌑
Once every seven years
he rises
once every seven years
stay hidden
to not be seen
Or once every four years and then another four years unless……… Unless what? Unless the unwashed wake up and realize what they have done.
Beware.
The Vampire.

Even the bearer of bad news doesn’t enjoy the task …. i feel sorry for the Abchanchu. The know-er of all and provider of none! seems like such a cross to bear.
Nice poem, Stuart! Thought provoking. 😀

Every seven years (or 10, depending on which story you hear) we become essentially new people, because in that time, every cell in your body has been replaced by a new cell. … It is true that individual cells have a finite life span, and when they die off they are replaced with new cells.
Or it’s a vampire.
