[ NaPo 2017 ] I No Longer Fear It

 
Is this supposed to be scary?  

Weaving though lanes
congested with abandoned cars
and half eaten bodies, difficult
paying attention to speed
bumps in the night  

And now I've got  
a desensitized brain  
only zombies would crave---
I'm unaffected by every wave  
as more rise from the grave 

Another shot to the head  
Head-shot after head-shot  
Cruising town aimlessly  
I've lost the plot  

Predictably violent seasons  
and after only two episodes  
I already have enough reasons
not to continue it

I'm off to bed    

ca'lick
  
Fuck that walking dead shit
