'Lady Vampire (A Poem in Story)' is a sweeping, gothic, short tale, a poem, told in verse, tracing the immortal life of Victoria, a vampire with long black hair, piercing blue eyes, and a sacred dagger etched into her back... For centuries she has wandered the shadowed streets of New Orleans' French Quarter, drawn by the memory of a mortal lover she lost long before her transformation...
Lonesome and longing, she walks only the night, drawn to blood and to the beauty of crimson roses, feeding in silence and leaving a single blood red rose as a quiet act of remorse... Cats, the city, and shadows themselves bear witness to her eternal sorrow, her endless search, and the delicate balance of such desire and guilt she carries... Over and over again...
Across the centuries, her story unfolds as a darkly romantic, melancholic on love, loss, and the unyielding weight of immortality...
"I will forever seek what I may find."
