Surrounded

Surrounded

A Chapter by Alex Vidmar

They're all around this hovel,
My only weapon, a beat-up shovel.
Adrenaline rushing, veins pulsing,
I close my eyes and sing.

I sing the song my daughters loved,
And the song to which my wife and I were wed.
They are all sick with this diabolical killer.
After I killed them, they were buried under a fiery pillar.

I kiss my wedding band and the necklaces my
Daughters made for me.
Take a deep breath, calm my nerves.
I drop my weapon and to the heavens my eyes curve.

The doorknob, I turn; they pour on in.
And their teeth tear away at my bare skin.
I just smile and think, with tears in my eyes.
"I'm coming girls, wait for me at the gates, and tell mommy I say, 'Hi.'"

Poor man. Lovely way of putting his death.

"And their teeth tear away at my bare skin.
"I just smile and think, with tears in my eyes.
" 'I'm coming girls, wait for me at the gates, and tell mommy I say, Hi."

Wonderful!

Nice flow of thoughts and I like the wide open ending. A powerful poem with a hard punch. A excellent chapter.

Aw, he died....Well, after all once one loses his/her family, you wanna give up on life. I like how you didn't mention the word "zombie" even once! I liked how you formatted it in a poem like way and there seems to be no errors whatsoever. Well nice start, and one thing for sure, I'm continuing this! -is a clear lover of zombie stories- :)
