                     Little Nicholas and His Lost Humanity
                       a Forever Knight poem by "Fleurette"


Disclaimer:  This poem is a parody of Shel Silverstien's "Little Abigail
and the Beautiful Pony."  No copyright infringements intended.  This is
NOT for profit.   But please!  Don't ask me what ever possessed me to
write this story.  Maybe I caught the same silly-disease that is
currently plaguing War-torn Toronto, and just wasn't back from Italy in
time to join a faction for the festivities?  Or maybe, I finally went
off the deep end?  That's always a possibility.  ;)


There was a vampire named Nicholas
Who was flying one day
With his master
When he spied an ounce of
His lost humanity.
And next to it was a sign
That said,
LOST-INQUIRE WITHIN.
"Oh," said Nicholas,
"May I have humanity?
May I please?"
And his Master said,
"No you may not."
And Nicholas said,
"But I MUST have humanity."
And his master said,
"Well, you can't have it,
But you can have a nice warm
Glass of blood when we get home."
And Nicholas said,
"I don't want a warm
Glass of blood.
I WANT HUMANITY-
I MUST HAVE HUMANITY."
And his master said,
"Be quiet and stop angsting-
You're not getting humanity."
And Nicholas began to cry and said,
"If I don't get humanity I'll die."
And his master said, "You won't die.
No vampire ever died from being inhumane."
And Nicholas felt so bad
That when they got home he went to his loft,
And he couldn't feed,
And he couldn't slep,
And his heart was broken,
And he DID die-
All because of the humanity
That his master denied him.

(And because his master finally got sick of hearing him whine and staked
him through the heart.  Remember that the next time you feel like
whining to a vampire.)
