In the form of a pantoune, this is a poem I wrote for my creative writing class that I wrote last night at 2am. I had The Walking Dead on the brain so I figured, hey, might as well write a poem bout it! Let me know what you think!


Littered like lightning-bugs on a summer's evening,

Broken bodies walk barren and battered

Rotting with rage and restless roaming.

Strays of strife and slaughter scattered,

Broken bodies walk barren and battered

Mindlessly milling, moaning as they mold.

Strays of strife and slaughter scattered

Pilfer and plunder any who persevere or grow old,

Mindlessly milling, moaning as they mold.

Wasting, walking weapons working only to

Pilfer and plunder any who preserver or grow old,

Holding humanity hostage with no hope due.

Wasting, walking weapons working only to

Feast on flesh and bone with a feverish ferocity,

Holding humanity hostage with no hope due.

Carnivorous creatures cannibalistically

Feast on flesh and bone with a feverish ferocity.

Animated atrocities with decaying breath,

Carnivorous creatures cannibalistically

Destroy; the dead don't die with death.
