Ode To Zombies
Rising from the dead with a scent like rotting garbage
Always a tad bit sideways limping on one leg
Trailing through a small town leaving a lot of carnage
For the taste of human brains you forever will beg
The grunts and growls escaping from your mouth are buzzing through my mind
I’m trying to figure out why you always create a crime
The decaying skin across your body sheds and falls behind
I don’t know why you fascinate me but to decipher that I’ll take my time
Scarlet red and dripping from your mouth
The blood drips down as if it’s from a faucet
Head cocked crooked like a sound came from the south
Dropping your hand you tell me just to toss it
As we walk your structure falls apart
Limbs falling like rain how can you not be in pain
You’ve just lost your foot and now I’m pushing you in a cart
