#mamyaw #poetry #isheavenoffthetable #manila @tripod_stories @popculture_ph Manila She never sleeps. Her heart beats In time to the Siren wails Echoing in  The night.  In the morning She breathes Humid exhalations Mixed in with The polluted air From car exhausts.  Her veins are choked With plastic and Sewage Where children Swim to beat The noonday heat.  But all this  Is wrapped inside A glossy satin Gown,  Lit with nitrogen Lamps strung Like pearls Round the emaciated  Neck of an  Anorexic model Still, she has  That disheveled  Beauty Of someone  Ravaged Against her will.  I love her despite  The abuse  She has endured.  There is strength In her.  She will prevail.

#mamyaw #poetry @tripod_stories #isheavenoffthetable #upir #vampire #amwriting #writingcommunity Upir The last thing I remember was slitting my arms and bleeding out,  the blood running down like a flood on the floor. Then upon waking, I have this thirst upon me so I drank as much as I could.  Still, I was parched. No amount of water  or spirit could slake it. I only knew that I had  to keep it under control.  I tried everything:  ate leeches gorged in human blood,  drank my fill from a thoroughbred horse,  devoured fresh liver and bone marrow... Yet the thirst lingers on. I fight it with all my will.  My rage is rising like a tide.  Everywhere heartbeats are ringing in my ears,  like church bells calling  to the faithful.  But I am not faithful nor am I pious.  I fear to touch someone and feel the flow  of blood in their veins. I am upir.  And I disdain myself. My ebook: http://www.blurb.com/b?ebook=675618 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx4GBWQBkES/?igshid=awio8ls4igfv
