Zombie Apocalypse Haiku – The Long Road to Ruin
Originally started off with number 3, then wrote the other haiku to form a story. Enjoy! - M.
1. Down a darkened road,
Driving along not knowing
The end was now there.
2. The streets were quiet
And the parking lots were bare
But signs everywhere
3. Strange bites? Fits of Rage?
The hospitals are filling
The dead rise from graves.
4. So find a weapon
To help keep yourself alive
Shotgun, axe, sword, knife.
5. Beware the bites first.
They kill all your friends. Because
They know its the end.
6. They feed, feed and feed
Unable to stop the need
They wander the streets.
7. So aim real high, Try
To hit the head. Otherwise
You might end up dead.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
