Zippor Nosferatu ~ The Cistercian Heretic

[In another Age, they would have burnt me at the stake]***I have been drawn into the erotic spiral dance of SALOME; Mistress of The Mysterium....I am on a dark & mystical Quest.I SEEK Forbidden Fruit; Hidden Truths, & Forgotten Knowledge.I am a "GREEN CLOWN" of the Order of Cistercian; a street walker in the Ghetto of Prague, making my way toward Transylvania and the Black Sea...Thanks to one of the "Veiled Ones" of Brasov, I am one step closer to reaching my goal; for I have arrived at the gates of Romania. I stand on The Emerald Peak, my "Open Eye" like a search light, reaches across the dark landscape, illuminating the great watery blackness washing against the ancient shore. The Crescent New Moon rides high above my left shoulder, hooded and cloaked, I descend into the unknown---into the depths of The Haunted Kingdom by the sea...My mind wanders; The "Thing" that originally pulled me to this place seems less powerful than those who have befriended me. Yet as quickly as this thought rises, it falls away---for once again, there is a ripple in the Black Pond, and a distant bellowing somewhere beyond the Rim of the World pulls me back in...Two days have passed, and the World around me shimmers; shadows become more real than solids, and my sight begins to decay. Grasping my Silvery Cup of Divination; I see two dark figures, one male, the other female pointing toward the EMEARLD TEMPLE OF THE VAMPIRE...Is it simply snowing in Romania, or is this the harbinger of True Hell on Earth? Danger from within and without; I am completely blind, intangled in vines, and succumbing to the unyielding Void... I BESEECH The help of the "VEILED ONES" & will listen to the WISDOM OF VAGABONDS, SAINTS, and CRIMINALS along "THE WAY"
