Me and George A Romero said that zombies are real
But they didn't believe us
They are everywhere
You're probably one
Acting out your basic instinct for hunger and violence
Instead of craving brains
You crave self destruction and ignorance
Everything you consume has been murdered or dumbed down
So you can digest it and understand a little better

The value of human life is determined by your skin color
Humanity has a cold stare in its eyes
The zombies pray to an imaginary man in the sky
And then soon as church lets out they kill your mother
They eat the flesh of other animals for their benefit
And say they live for "god" despite their devilish ways

When will the zombies be human again is what I ask?
Supposedly if you aim for the head
You can take them out with one blast
We all know that everything dies
The only choice we have
Is if we die as the truth or as a bunch of lies

What is that foul stench that attracts all the maggots and flies
That is the smell of humanity dying
Because most of the humans have turned into zombies

Yes, this is true for a great part of humanity, but I do believe there is an awakening to LOVE. I know people who really care for humanity's destiny and they work in that direction.

Your poem is a strong denunciation. Thank you.

As Mahatma Gandhi said we need to be the change we want to see in the world.

Love,
Margherita

Yo Streets,

Who you calling a Zombie?  Have you looked in the mirror lately?  How’s about your fingernails, are they about two foot long, or what?

BTW, I think you meant "bunch of lies", not "bunch lies".
