Nightmares From Poem a Thon

April 11 3 Am Nightmares April 12 Zombie Apocalypse Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me Everywhere zombies galore The end of the world had become And the zombification of the world had begun Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me No one knew when or where the first zombies appeared One moment zombies were just a collective figment of our deranged imagination The next moment we were all living in a zombie apocalypse nightmare Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me Some said the zombies were created in a lab Released by mad scientists and the military Others said it was plague sent by God himself To punish mankind for tolerating evil and moral depravity Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me The Christians and Muslims prayed But their prayers went unheard As they too soon became zombies Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me The zombies hunted in packs Overwhelming their victims Killing most instantly But some they simply bit And turned them into fellow zombies Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me The zombies did not attack one another They preferred living live flesh Human flesh but they ate everything they saw Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me And so, I ran into the countryside With my fellow humans Hit out deep in the woods Hiding from zombies And crazed cannibal gangs alike Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me The world ended that day And our nightmare world began Zombies to the right of me Zombies to the left of me Zombies ahead of me Zombies behind me
