From Apocalypse to Zombie

A villainous villanelle-esque poem

When the world is burning down, I must concede perhaps apocalypse films were sorta right — true friends are great to help you fight zombies.

If you don’t have escape plans, shame on you because something’ll see you and want a bite when the world is burning down. I must concede

I never had a plan at first — a true mistake before watching Walking Dead at night. True friends are great to help you fight zombies

is the first lesson you learn through and through during a global emergency. Fight when the world is burning down, I must concede

that truth. Giving up isn’t a plan you can live through now, and even the mere sight of friends are great to help you fight zombies

in the end. And if you have no friends to help, make some fast to survive. It’s only right when the world is burning down, then I concede true friends are great to help you fight zombies.

As All Hallows’ Eve creeps closer, it seems appropriate to turn to the horror genres for poetry.

Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!
