Two Red Wounds

Pin Points upon
the lavish expanse
of virgin neck –

dual taplines over
the carotid artery.

Joined by two more
the following night
and the consequent
lethargy and
apparent anemia.

Restless sleep –
garlic garlands and
religious artifacts
to keep the dark at bay.

Sleepless guardians,
well-informed madman/genius and
hypnotized slave
dance around the shadow of the bat

dreading
the next
two red wounds.
