1. Zombie Haiku

The stench of decay
Eyes devoid of cognizance
Aaaaaargh, brains

Written by [Triola]

2. a decaying mind

Greying skin and rotton nails
Single minded
Festering and rotten
Weilding a crusted blade good and propper
The decaying mind, rotten eyes stare out at me
He is what he eats, a cannibal a rotten mind
He says that is his part, but that happens to be my heart!
Black beaded eyes tell of a decaying demise
The rotten flesh hangs off his bones
He yearns for more flesh to chew from the decayed
Oh how there is nothing more depraved
More depraved than the decayed mind

Written by [Zaharaiel (Shadow lord)]

3. Zombie's mirror

One could say,
no limb must miss,
but due to decay,
that’s wistfulness.

I stink of gore and rot,
my blood is clotted,
more often than not,
and simply allotted.

Oh I do wish I had curly manes,
of hair flaming red,
but instead I got no brains,
and the rest is dead.
