…..Johnny Lantz II
…………………………………….tenor.com
He lies there, stupidly, while trying not
To fall asleep, with glossy earphones at
His neck as if he’s hoping that some hot,
Fanged vampire will arrive to make blood splat
But that the silver will protect him from
The undead suck attack. Yet it’s not teeth
That Lantz is fearing. Unsuspecting thumb
Is lying at the edge there, where, beneath
His football jersey skin peaks out, revealed
Coquettishly, a cotton blink before
The metal-taloned Krueger ripped and squealed
Up through his sheet and mattress for the gore.
That wonderful, enchanting lower lip!
….Those hideous claws appearing near his hip!
