Black is night
Black feels like a bat's velvet wing
Black smells like a victom's' fear
Black tastes like the soft flesh of a man's neck
Black sounds like the fading beat of a heart
Black looks like the blood staining my lips
Black is shadows
Black is vampire

Dark. Deep. and foreboding. Short and powerful piece about the dark that is everywhere within and around us.
Keep writing.

Kickass!
I love you decribed it with all of the five senses. That added so much power to it, it's unreal. I usually don't like free verse or something so repetative, but this... was great. Even more so, I love how it was all linked to a vampire in the end. Very well written I must say.
