Vampire's Rose - A Spooky Routine for the Kevin James Floating Rose

It's that time of year again. So I brought out this lil' piece of work that I wrote and published in bizarre ink. The numbers are where the magic is performed and is explained at the bottom of the piece. I hope that some of the membership will find it fun for the Halloween season.

It was like I got to see a little show once or twice a week. Looking back, he was something of an artist.
