The 
Vampire
 "There was this guy 
that
 hung out in school who 
always
 dressed up like Bela 
Lugosi.
 You know: complete vampire 
deluxe
 attire including white face 
and
 cape.  Rumor had it, he slept
 in a coffin and went to 
class
 always dressed in 
black.
 Someone told me, they saw 
him
 drink a glass of blood but 
I
 thought that was a bit 
extreme
 even for Ithaca.  He was weird
 though, no doubting 
that.
 No matter how late you 
staggered
 back toward the dorm you 
might
 sort of see him tinkering 
with
 the hearse, of course, he 
had
 a hearse with wall to wall 
carpeting
 and quadraphonic sound.
 God only knows where he got it 
all
 because it was like 
new.
 I guess his people had 
money,
 old money, if you know what I 
mean.
 Let me tell you that was one 
campus
 that didn't look forward to 
Halloween."
