Burn our bones, buried
Deep in the cemetery.
Pray for the restless
Ghosts among the living dead:
Awaken those far ahead.

Smothered

you make me spit out all my breath
like you control over the living dead
so I'm tied to my own bed
all smothered inside and haunted in the head

Buried In the Sand

I can't even talk to any man
Altough I'm already really buried in the sand
Everything's falling on my head
And I feel like a crazy - normal living - dead

The Living Dead

While walking through a cemetery
Things were really quite ordinary
Until I finally saw
My "alive" mother-in-law
That's when it turned out to be quite scary

Me and the Fumes

As I smoke the living dead, I inhale my mind
and produce dreams as if the devils thoughts 
were convulsing in bliss. They become reality and dance
around me as pagan rituals.

Fright of the Living Dead 2k12

O Tony, wherefore dost thou feel out of sorts? Existing so - tho' not soothly living. Haps thou art the living dead which resorts Into its cold chamber ne'er living.

From the foots 
of the tall buildings
many living dead 
are coming up wobbling.

Stealthily,the living dead
are peeping inside
from the windows of the houses
of poor families.

October 31st

A ghostly wind sings
Scattered leaves on their death bed
Screams fill the silence

The full moon watching
Branches reaching for your hand
The shadows follow

Graves no longer full
The night of the living dead
Happy Halloween

When
Is
Heard the
Screeching sound
At the midnight hour
Is the death messenger calling
Horrorizing the errant souls without destiny
Condemning the victims to a fate of living dead alive through the eternit

O Love Burn Me

O Love you are deathless path
But I'm the living dead mirth

O Love you are great soul of meteor, great path of galaxies
But I'm the fallacious wisp, dust of the dusk

O Love come into me,
burn me firing the inside

The living dead

My time of death I don't quite know,
I'm still breathing but I was gone long ago.
Locked in the casket of a broken mind,
If I go any deep I'm afraid of what I'll find.
The skeleton of what I was was is gone a,
corpse of the lost me at every new dawn.

The Higher Path

Tripping,
Falling,
Tripping,
Acid ride inside,
What changed?
Woodstock woman,
Living dead zombie,
What changed?
Made you give up,
The ‘deadhead’ lifestyle;
Trading for a hobbit,
A Grecian convent,
Nevermore are you;
You,
The higher path,
Married to God.

Dead Living

time to let go
dark clouds setting in
I don't want to, no
seems to be no end
thoughts scatter
weak gets weaker
don't know the matter
I get deeper
hunger for warmth
cravings swarm
starvs til fed
lingers til morn
oh how I dread
this long, cold, dark
living dead
Form: Rhyme

Clock

Crisscrossed stitches,
Lusting the needles thread,
Caressing the distance,
Between the living dead.
Hand in hand,
Lips to lips,
Time sings candles,
Drip drop drip.
These sticks move in silence,
In there circle of malice,
Counting the numbers,
Verbs and nouns so callous.

Premium Member Good Show

Put on a good show
For the people in the front row
Can’t express your true feelings
With a sack on your head
The living dead
On the ground kneeling
Your hands tied
Behind your back
On a one-way ride
On a one-way track
Conceal the lamentation
It’s all in the presentation

The living dead, think they’re alive Trapped in a fear prison Thoughts centred on wealth and sex drive Yet feel their soul’s risen Human form a facade In darkness they do plod Distanced from love and God By desires led The living dead 17-August-2022 Quietus

Death's Indenture

Many die
to walk unknown
amongst
the living dead

Their hearts reclaimed
yet beating still
whose verses
go unread

They wander freely
in the night
their chains
relock the grave

Awaiting words
you’ve yet to write
to free
— their death enslaved

The Living Dead

They say that they are Christians
But commit all kinds of immoral act

They say that they are Christians
But they lie, steal, deceive, and sin

They say that they are Christians
But support lies and not the truth

They are alive in the flesh
But they are dead in the Spirit

The Living Dead

Smart Phones

It’s been used in so many movies,
and series, and books to be read -
some kind of sickness breaks out in the world
turning all into the living dead.

I once thought the concept was silly,
but now days I just shake my head,
cuz this bug has all the same 
turned the whole world...
right into the living dead.

Lords Grace

As the grace of my lord invade my segments
my soul stears from satins decent

with his hateful lament 
and his constent resent
the feel of my soul is in malcontent

i never look back at the shadows in black
but insteed look ahead at the living dead

for I will never become blined to the wise mans sin
for he can lead me to sin again

Echoes of Errors --Itty Bitty

Our heroes past ate on the platter of pain,
in their gravesite we pick grapes of gain.
These living dead have nothing to offer,
they plough and plant...for posterity to suffer.
We are a generation aborted after birth;
alive yet dead in the domain of dearth...
These political parrots speak of change;
but the echoes of their errors sound strange!
Form: Couplet

Distinct Unity

Those who are in an attempt of self-annihilation
They have found the original perpetual presence

Those who have embraced himself in his own secrets
They have got his seat with the existence of supreme spirit

Those who have been the lover of the deepest love of God
They are living dead with eternity in the primordial existence

Children In the Sky

There is a full moon,
distant in the sky, tonight, 

Grey planets are planted
on an aging white face.

Children, living & dead,
love the moon with small hearts.

Those in heaven already take gold thread,
drop the moon down for us all to see;

Those alive with us, look out their 
bedroom windows, tonight, & smile-

Then prayers, then sleep.

Elegy DEADED SOULS TALK N-WALK

Interment unholy uncovered grounds;
Awesomely truest self instantly found;

The dead bones rise up also them so walk

Ever-presents of open-armed God Crowned;
Humanity and angels sing souls sound;

Spirit of the living dead souls be talk;
Hallelujahs
