Shared by the supportive folks at Poetreecreations..
Everyone is leaving their homes today
It’s started
Hordes of zombies marching
Headlamps clatter and devour our destiny
Mechanical monstrosities belching out chemicals
Hurricanes
Torture
Famine
Bloodshed
Warfare
A torrent of atrocity
It’s started
The hordes of zombies are marching
Spliced DNA in an underground lab
Families killing families for bread
They are listening and watching over our every move
Vilification in the headlines
Guns on the street
Knives in our pockets
It’s started
But this is no horror film
or post-apocalyptic vision
This is just another day
Just another man kissing his wife good-bye
and jumping into the family saloon, heading out to work
Just another person in an unknown location,
piloting drones to blow up civilians
Just another politician selling another dirty lie
Just another person turning a blind eye
This is today
This is now
It’s started
