The Necromancer

 

The Necromancer

 

 

 

 

 

Eyes of gray

Cold as stone

Walking the shadowy streets the

Necromancer feels home

 

His power searching

Into an alley he strays

 

Vampires appear to take his life

But they are in for a surprise

He feels them coming

From him not one of them can hide

 

Like a chilling wind his power

reaches out

Only too late do they realize

their peril

 

To some he says die

And they fall

To others he says freeze

And they can’t move at all

 

His power is over the dead

and undead

All feel his call

 

Leaving frozen statues behind

along with ash, he goes back to his to

his search

He’s running out of time

At the end of the alley he finds

the doorway he seeks, and steps inside

I love the power of your vampire characters. The master of masters effortlessly conquering his unsuspecting assailants. Well, they are only unsuspecting until in his actual presence when they realize, only too late, the grave mistake they've made. I suspect it's close to sunrise which is the significance of the "door" he seeks.

Awesome as always Cylis... :)

I loved the image of him leaving frozen statues and ash behind while he seeks a door. So cool! I also like the way he just say "die" to some, but to others, he won't let them move at all. One tiny typo note: Vampires appear, not appears. :) I'm sure you know that, but you probably just missed the typo when you read it over. Very nice poem! I enjoyed it! :)
