Okay, the intro thing. To start with, my real name is Mike, but you can call me Vampyral.
So where did I go off the deep end?Well, I got into the darker side of poetry as a means of surviving. Growing up with a head injury at the age of nine left me feeling like I was always on the outside of things as far as life was concerned, so my feelings and fears came out in the poetry I wrote. I remember the first of these came in my senior year in high school, starting me on the path. Don't get me wrong, most of the stuff I write is not in this genre, but my faves pretty much are. A good bit of the other stuff is downright spiritual. In the Gothic form I have written poems, songs, short stories and started some plays. Hey, it's a kick.
Thanks for tuning in and I hope to hear from you by email. Feel free to drop a line, but no wooden stakes, please.
Vampyral.
I might also include some information about my personal history: where I grew up, where I went to school, various places I've lived. If I have one, I'll include a picture of myself engaging in an activity I enjoy, such as a sport or hobby.

What a life!!!
In real life I work as an artist making posters by hand and doing healing work using Spiritual means (nothing Satanic or anything like that). I practice and anceint healing art called Reiki at the Master Level. Reiki is about five thousand years old. I also use stones, oils, herbs and metals, and a great big dose of prayer, as I am also Christian and deeply believe in the power of prayer.
