Poetry: "The Living Dead"

Poetry: "The Living Dead"    I know Hallowe'en is a little way's off, but the genres of horror and sci-fi are among my writing influences.

       The Living Dead hide in your shed/ At night they creep beside your bed./ They feed on you while you're abed./ They won't relent until they're fed/ Or find another source [of Blood] instead./ Beware of them or you'll fall dead./

       The Living Dead hide in your shed./ Heed their presence or you'll fall dead./[And] At night come out and cause you dread.

       The Living Dead will tap a vein/ and then will eat into your brain./ Venture too close to their hive/ And you'll be lucky your alive.
