OK, maybe it's more likely that we need to hide from the zombies. Cat would be very helpful in the bunker. He would make sure it is kept clear of all small rodents and larger bugs.
I think I'm off topic here....
The problem is that I've been zombie fodder for awhile now. Bits and pieces of my brain seem to have disappeared. I've already forgotten what this post is supposed to be about.
Oh yeah. A novel about zombies.
No, ReformingGeek, no. A POEM!
Oh. Right. Here goes:
O howz I love thee, letz me countz zee vays.
No, ReformingGeek, no. Quirky already did that one.
Oh. Right.
OK. Consider yourself warned. Here's my final answer:
Roses are red, violets are blue (great start, huh?)
The undead of the night are wanting for you.
Creatures known as zombies with bodies craving
Without a spirit to guide them, they are certainly misbehaving.
Count your fingers, count your toes.
Oh Dearz, have they taken your nose?
Where's little Johnny and his pet sheep Dan
Oopz! It looks like Johnny's in the frying pan.
ENOUGH, REFORMINGGEEK, ENOUGH!
OK. OK. Sorry, and no, I wasn't drinking.
Contest details can be found here. I hope you enjoyed your weekend poetry reading.

I must put on my poetry thinking cap; after I check on the cut off date.
Oh yea, I definitely think you and cat should win.
@Donna - Go, Donna, go!
@Quirky - Thanks. Sorry, but no credit goes to MJ today.
@mama-face - You should write one. You are a great poet!
The only thing that didn't ring true for me was the pet sheep Dan. Don't know why; just didn't. Maybe it was because I was expecting something else. Dan the Sheep? Sam, maybe, but Dan, I don't see it. ;)
Hmmm, a zombie poem?? maybe if I have time....
I am blown away by your skillz
@unfinished - There is always a critic!
@otin - Yeah. Go for it!
@Chief - Thankz
I find zombies to be endlessly amusing and terrifying and they make for really interesting poetry too, as a bonus. All poems should be about zombies, in fact.
Most excellent poem. Sucked me in with the sweet opener, then had me checking for my nose and imagining what frying Johnny smells like. LMAO!
@Nanodance - Of course!
@MikeWJ - Thank you! Be sure to leave the lights on tonight.
I really don't want my brainz fried up in a frying pan. Much better eaten straight.
You weren't drinking? That's the problem. All great poets drink.
@CatLady - Hum....if you say so.
@Prefers - And you have to be drunk to understand most poets.
I love killing zombies.
writing poetry? meh not so much
I should write an ode to Dexter!!! I am obsessed with this show.
