The Poetry.com title of this poem was Deadman’s Wonderland, and it’s title was inspired by an anime I have never seen and the poem itself is inspired by Interview with the Vampire (the movie version of Anne Rice’s book).

A Dragonman’s Wonderland
Open your dead eyes
Listen to the sounds
Do you hear them?
Can you hear them?
It's the sound of "them" awakening
Death do them 'part so many times
Yet they stay alive as their spirits wander
They settle into the bones of those that peacefully passed on
And they walk, under the moon and in the fog of the Swedish village
Soon they learn how to cleave flesh and apply it to their bodies
So now the dead can walk, and now they can dance
They learn to be noble men and women
And they use their cunning dead brains to reinvigorate themselves
They are cunning, you see.
They use the blood of others to stay alive
They will always be dead but alive
To them, Earth is a Dragonman's wonderland
Do you hear me, young maiden?
Will you run and hide?
