Zombie Girl Again
Copyright 2018 Michael S. Walker
The little zombie girl
From Night of the Living Dead
Has come to kill me
But I’m not
Your damn mother!
I yell
As she raises her garden spade
Like a Catholic chalice
It doesn’t matter
She is thinking with her teeth now
And eating with her brain
She has student-loan debt
The size of Stage-4 cancer
Her real mother
Is a tweaker
In Camden, New Jersey
And her father…
So here she comes
With a whole Bonus Army
Slow on her muddied heels.
