The Nightly News Zombie
The newslady’s tucked her face again,
Done some debriding and chemical peel
Slipped a stitch into her eye-holes,
Shot some more autologen into
Her already full pouting lips,
Ruffled up her hair of unknown color
In another new way.
I’ve watched every night
For over ten years.
She never gets older,
She just gets
Undead-er.
December 2010
I have a lot more of this poem, but it's going to have to be put on the slab in my moldering basement laboratory for more experimentation before I resurrect it to hideous Undead life. Til then, here's 55 words of it.
