From Zombies In Poetry, chapter 3:

The zombies had taken over the zoo first
And later the aquarium.
I don't know what they wanted with the animals.
They didn't eat them.
They just chewed them a little.

I saw one of them in the monkey cage.
He used to live down the street from me.
He was wearing pyjamas and one big fluffy slipper.
He had a big hole in his back.
I could see his red and white spine.

It had started to rain, he was chasing a monkey.
The monkey knew what was coming.
It tried to scale a wall, but kept falling down.
Rob, which was his name, was tall
And he stood high over the monkey.

Run out of the cage, I yelled at the monkey
This isn't your home any more.
He's going to eat your face.
You stupid monkey.

Rob picked up the monkey and cupped its head in his hands.
He brought it to up to his mouth and bit a bit
His teeth sunk in and the monkey screamed.

Rob stared off into the wall and chewed, bored
The monkey in his arms fitting and fighting
Rob spat out the flap of monkey skin.
And threw the monkey into an artifical river.

Rob walked into the wall twice.
He fell over both times.
I picked up a rock and threw it into the monkey cage.
Rob chased it, and picked it up
Cupping it in his hands.

He tried to bite it, and some of his teeth broke off.
I got bored, and went back to looking for the zoo cafeteria
Because I heard they had some food.

I found some old hotdogs.
As I chewed them I saw Rob sucking on a dead snake in the reptile section.
You are a stupid zombie Rob, I thought, as I chewed my hotdog.

Later on I threw some rocks at him.
It was sort of funny.
