“The Revenant by Stewart Stafford The golden ball in the sky adopts an adios hue, And kisses the world a fond adieu, The predators that thrive in its absence appear, Their shadows and eyeshine our darkest fears. The Revenant stirs from subterranean limbo, With bloodied fangs and glowing eyes akimbo, To survive and stagger the bloodlust way, Until fasting begins at break of day. Hear the tap at your window, The solitary song, Embrace the contagion, No matter how wrong. Feel the frigid skin, The piercing bite, And live in their troth, At one with night. Then recline in their grave, In eternal embrace, And rise at sundown, A gothic Queen of Disgrace. © Stewart Stafford, 2021. All rights reserved.”

“If this isn’t real, he whispered, I’m better off with your knife in my chest. Yes, I’d marry you, a million times, over and over again. I’d do anything to make you happy. Or to just take some of your pain away. You think I’m important to you? You’re the center of my fucking universe. You’re the sun, Frankie. And fuck the rest of the world, because for a little while I got to look at the sun every day, I got to touch her and hold her and make her laugh. If you don’t think I see you, you’re not paying attention. Because I don’t see anything else. Murray, J.L.. Hoarfrost (Blood of Cain Book 2) (p. 178). Hellzapoppin Press. Kindle Edition.”

“Anyone watching her would have thought her cold, indifferent, but this was the only way she knew to tackle her deepest troubles, to shoo them aside as if they were a cloud of summer gnats, and deal with the task at hand brusquely and efficiently. Hannah always thought of it as her mother's Englishness, that ability to equalize problems so that a scuffed shoe and an impending disaster were almost equally distasteful, but both were born with aplomb.”
