Zombies

Zeal uncontained, needing quarantine
Oscillating rigor mortis, feigned or real
Madness, the only description saleable
Both for actors and non actors alike
Invested in the runaway train consumers
Enjoy at the expense of real tragedy
Shuttered from public view, until it's not

hello James, I typed in the word zombie in the search engine because I've been in the mood of reading ZOMBIE poems. I clicked on this poem. HA, who would have ever known I'd find an incredible acrostic. Amazing & epic. I just finished watching THE WALKING DEAD... Wish they knew about quarantine. LOL, instead they roam the screens... Love It... LINDA

"Enjoy at the expense of real tragedy"My sentiments exactly. They can be pretty funny though. Love, daver
