Ed Morris Poet Diminished Hexaverse

Run

The moment has come:
We have to leave now.
The zombies are here,
And after our brains,
As everyone feared.

They can't be killed.
They can't be beat.
Take my advice:
Don't even try.

Don't dawdle.
No gawking.
No yacking.

Come on!
Quickly!

Run!!

P.S. Awtry January 17, 2019 at 3:37 PM somehow to me it looks like the speaker is getting farther away??? like they are calling over their shoulder and not waiting around :) Ed Morris January 17, 2019 at 3:53 PM OK, that works! :-)

P.S. Awtry January 17, 2019 at 1:26 PM SO COOL! The form and topic work so well together and I love how this looks on the page! Best of luck in the contest! Ed Morris January 17, 2019 at 1:50 PM Thanks, P.S. I wish I could turn it sideways to make it look more like a megaphone, but I guess it gets the idea across. :-)
