See No Evil - Expiration for Aesthetic
Stories From My Mind - Countess of Blood
Hi Hi everybody,
So my country celebrates Women's Month in August and with that I've decided to focus more on women in horror for this month. In history, in fiction and in everyday life women play a really important role in far more ways than I can list. Hell, this very post would have never seen the light of night if not for a damn awesome lady in my life.
With all that out the way, I present this weeks entry. A little poem about one of my favourite vampire ladies, Elizabeth Bathory, Countess Dracula herself.

Countess of Blood
Oh to be forever young, forever cursed.
Would you not too have bathed in a flood
to know the true power of fresh spilt blood
Oh to know infinite power, infinite thirst.
What is wealth without power
Power without youth
Youth without wealth?
Oh to be forever loved, forever served.
And the blood you had would never satisfy
so 600 or more girls had to die.
Oh to know that for all time your beauty is preserved.
What is life without love
Love without pain
Pain without life?
Oh to be forever adored, forever known
Your story and beauty forever remembered
even if a few girls were dismembered.
Oh to be the Countess of Blood, forever on your throne.
Some might say Elizabeth was a vampiric witch chasing immortality, some might say she was an intelligent powerful woman who made the king nervous due to her wealth and ability to lead without a man. Either way, I am sure we can agree that she accomplished some amazing things.
Remember to be kind to women in your life, they are capable of anything...
