Zombie Shark
On 11-28-2015, Hurricane Ben, slammed off the shores of Sydney Australia,
Its tremendous waves beaching the second largest shark in the world today,
Colossus, killing him on impact, his remains were taken to the eco science
Lab, nearby for scientific study!
THE ZOMBIE SHARK
There is ancient saying do not mess with Mother Nature, we’re not
Gods, and the power of creation should remain outside our realm
Of realism, those theorists whom wish to play God,
Should not be given a doctorate,
In science, or medicine!
Oh humanity whom believe that we are the only intelligent
Of the species, nay our down fall is insatiable curiosity, why
Can’t you not understand this simply law of nature, the premise of
Somethings are better left well enough alone!
Natural selection of extinction is done with a purpose and meaning
Behind it, so listen to what it is saying!
Oh Lord God, what have we done experimenting on the undead?
Creating this aquatic Frankenstein monster of the briny deep,
A serial killer without remorse, willing to destroy everything
Living or not within its destructive path!
A botched genetic engineering experiment, gone terrifyingly
Wrong, infused with injections chemical warfare he was so
Reanimated, brought back to life as the undead, a zombie
Shark!
A sharp toothed man-eater escaped, stalking just off
Shore of nightmare lagoon, killing at random without
Mercy’s redemption, this water demon knows only
The hunger for flesh and bone, yet his is the thirst
Never quenched, and belly full but never satisfied!
The bite to the right of survival, humanity your now
On his fishy menu, just when you thought it was
Safe to go back into the water, it turns a chummy
Crimson red, behold the living undead Jaws,
The colossus of the seven seas!
Once bitten twice shy, on this carnages riptide of death,
Is there no salvation for us whom linger on safeties shore?
As rigorous derelict begins to decay, other ocean
Dwellers come to partake of this undead swimming
Feast, but this deadhead turns his razor sharp smile
Against them instead, relishing in their pains of agony!
In colossus decay, he produces a slimy bloody wake,
Attracting something massive from underneath,
Is it an ivory finned submersible ship, no it is the largest
Creature in the known Ocean, behold the great white
Shark, Submarine!
Without hesitation, a feeding frenzy insures between
These two giants, but in this case size is everything,
And Submarine wins fins down, but once bitten
Twice shy again my zombie loving friends, and the
Virus has been absorbed through the sharked skin,
And the Oceans waters will never be safe,
For another zombie shark so swims again,
And he will reign supreme, as the biggest
Fish in the known world, and his name is Submarine!
