Raise the Dead

The dead are walking. Thirsty for some human flesh. They'll find you someday. Quietly creep forward. Sudden death on your trail. Fighting won't save you. A body so frail. There's nothing you can do. A dead man mocking. Raising the dead. The dead are walking. A sudden outbreak. A virus so quick to kill. A tragedy ends. Spreading so slightly. Hungry for blood. Cornered so tightly. Sinking in mud. A whisper inviting. Gasp your last breath. A shotgun exciting. Beat me to death.
