‘Vampire Girls Summer’ by Matilda Cormier-Stumpf

Blues of Summer Sun
tainted
painted
burned

Eaten Away Night That Later Reflect My Days
Fresh-Faced
Faked
…
Irony

Trickles of Sun That Go Against My Religion
pasty
petrification
night-walker

Blinds Drawn, Huddled Bundle of Pale and Black
Cornered
Hissing
Incisors

A Quincunx with Me in The Centre
spotlight
sizzle
attack

A Dawn that Never Ends, That then Is Over
Sleeping
Waking
Ending.
