In the long night of winter

vampires reunite

on a ball of gold and silver

with multicolored masks

hiding their legendary bloodthirstiness.

.-.-.-.

Their human victims

are invited

with promises of love and eternal life,

ignoring the fatal destiny

that patiently awaits for them.

.-.-.-.

When the sun rises,

from the face of the Earth

they dissappear,

and their captors rise with triumph

with their mouths covered by blood.
