Night of the Living Dead

As the fires of day grow dim

The light of the moon lies low

Calling to the undead

Screaming from below

I awake with an evil start

And slowly open my eyes

In answer to your thoughts

I hear my own self cry

Pushing through the darkness

Digging toward fresh air

Zombies have to put up with things

like bugs in long dead hair

I walk with joy and freedom

While you afraid with pain

Crawl away to solitude

And wipe away my name

My time to live is lost

Once again I’m lying deep

Inside the ground that holds me tight

Bleeding in my sleep
