ZOMBIES

You see them In broad daylight, 

They do not know you're there,

The Zombies are expanding,

They pop up everywhere .

Buses are a favourite place,

Where they like to hang around,

On trains they all will mass in force,

Or on the underground.

The Zombies are not human,

When they go into their trance,

Its a global mass of Zombies,

From China through to France. 

They walk across the roads,

Ignoring all the cars,

They look at you with daggers,

As If you came from Mars.

Everyone with heads all bowed,

Are powerless to speak,

Talking has become extinct,

On every worldwide street.

These Zombies are alive and well,

The living dead alone,

Just hypnotic people, 

Who can't put down their phone.

Reminds me of the golden rule on the underground: Don't talk to anyone!

It's a crazy screwed up world when you offer a lady your seat on the tube and she looks at you as if to say: "What the hell are you doing talking to me you nutter" and then just shakes her head vigorously and turns her back on you.

A sad piece reflecting how the modern world has become a world of strangers - lost in their own inner zombification - often due to the scourge of technology - often and more sadly, due to fear!
