Can We Burn The Whole World Down Tonight? - A Bonus Episode
Greetings from Mizuki, your host. I am sharing with you today a self-written poem that I wrote very recently. My inspiration for this is the seemingly never-ending chaos in the world. It is very short and I hope you like it. From time to time, I will be sharing my other poems and short stories.
Here are the verses of my poem:
Can we burn the whole world down tonight?
Can the world stand still for a moment?
I cannot keep up with the motion
Everything keeps spinning and turning
Along with all my swirling emotions
I want the world to quiet down just a little
Give me time to think and feel
I am on a never-ending rollercoaster ride
I do not know anymore what is real
Can we burn the whole world down tonight?
Give me some peace just this time
I am being torn down from limb to limb
I, too, need to breathe sometimes
You can now find me on Instagram too! Just look for legendsfrommizuki
I hope you enjoy this!

The Vampyre - A Tale by John William Polidori
Welcome back to another episode of the Legends from the Moon. I will be sharing to you yet another gothic novella from 1800s which is called The Vampyre by John Polidori. This will be divided into 3 episodes. The Vampyre by John Polidori was published in 1819 about a young and enigmatic Englishman named Aubrey who seduces young women to suck their blood and vanish before going on to another trip around Europe. In the 1800s, this classic vampire story inspired lots of works and was even made into a stage play because of its popularity at the time.

The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe
Hello and welcome to the very first episode of the Legends from the Beautiful Moon.

For my first episode, I would like to dedicate it to the Master of the Macabre, Edgar Allan Poe. His works are loved by millions of people all over the world and have inspired several writers like me.
This is a story about a man named Montresor who sought revenge on his acquaintance, Fortunato, by luring him into the catacombs of his abode and buried him there alive. Now let's take a dive into the macabre.
