my neighbors still slept
as the zombies crept through town
they awoke undead
mom threw a grenade
the zombie blew up, alas,
blood got in her mouth
gunning down zombies,
my arm was bitten. weeping,
i hacked it clean off
later i saw mom
dead-eyed, moaning, and ******
and slit my lone wrist
nora burned the stairs
zombies piled up beneath her
rotten hands grasping
nora stayed upstairs
after five days of terror
she starved to death there
dad was cleverest
he fled to the Atlantic
to escape by boat
wading through driftwood
he found a russian u-boat
full of gnarled corpses
not dead as they seemed
the kremlin zombies leapt up
and ate my dad's brains
