Dracula rises again,
glides towards a busty babe
in flimsy negligee.
In the coffin
of my dad’s Sportabout,
teeth clack
like bats
attempting lip lock.
Hands
in death throes
of high-school-hood
writhe
under pink angora,
fondle
Cross-Your-Heart buds,
battle
hook-and-eye monsters
even Van Helsing couldn’t slay.
In the sequel
to the sequel
to the sequel
to the sequel,
runes flutter
from a musty tome, whisper
My big bad senior, pierce the vein
where puppy love slumbers,
and I raise my muzzle to the moon,
bay maidenhood forever cloistered.
Because
at the Starlite,
only Chris Lee scores,
only the window speaker screams.
