Video Title- Athena Fleurs- Barbie Dracula- Kat... 95%

The Poem of the Mantle


Welcome to the Burda website. Read the original Arabic, a transliteration, or an English translation.



مَولَاىَ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمًا أَبَدًا
ِعَلَى حَبِيبِكَ خَيرِ الْخَلْقِ كُلِّهِم

ATHENA FLEURS sits motionless on a throne, her painted smile frozen. BARBIE DRACULA lounges on a heart-shaped bed, sipping fake blood from a teacup. (giggling) "You know, Athena, for a doll who can’t die, you sure do cry a lot of glitter." Athena Fleurs: (slow, mechanical turn of the head) "I don’t cry. I leak perfection." Suddenly — CRASH . KAT kicks the door open, stake raised. Kat: "Party’s over, plastic fang. I’m here for the immortal heart on the mantel." SCENE 2 – THE OFFER The "immortal heart" glows inside a glass case — the last source of eternal life. Only one can take it. Barbie Dracula: "Darling, you’re outnumbered. Two immortals, one angry kitten." Kat: "Funny. I only see one monster here. The other’s just a doll who forgot how to break." Athena stands. Her joints click. Athena Fleurs: "Kat wants to destroy the heart. Barbie wants to drink it. But me? I want to become human. Even for one night." SCENE 3 – THE TWIST Barbie lunges at Kat. Kat dodges and shatters the glass case with her stake. The heart falls.

Athena — moving faster than anyone expected — catches it. "You wouldn’t." Athena Fleurs: (smiling for the first time — genuine) "Watch me." She presses the heart to her porcelain chest. Light explodes. When it fades, Athena stands there — no longer a doll. Human. Barefoot. Breathing. Kat: "Now you’re mortal. And she’s pissed." Barbie Dracula screeches and transforms — pink cape, glowing red eyes.
