A Poem, The Lonely Zombie

I wrote this at the height of the zombie craze. I figured I would unleash it on the world at some point, and then I misplaced it and completely forgot about it. I finally found it a few minutes ago.

The living run from me in fear
I stagger because I’m starving
I let out a strain but they still won’t come near
With my teeth your bones I’ll be carving
I don’t discriminate I just want a friend
Why will no one stop and talk to me
My feelings hurt I just want this to end
Just give me a bite and I’ll set you free
Is my look off-putting
It’s a compliment for me to chase you
Finally, someone lost their footing
Please stop I just want to chew
I am the lonely zombie looking for a meal
Why does everyone run away like it’s a big deal

Let me know what you think!

Thanks for reading!
