of Zombies and Lazarus

oh just read it for Pete's sake!

Don't you hate it
when you take
that paper
and squash
that bug

but it flies away
despite your most
valiant efforts
it comes back
to buzz in your ear
again?

I didn't call
the witch doctor
so I don't know
what to do
when the zombie
keeps pestering me ...

And I sure as hell
don't have a direct
line to Jesus
so how does Lazarus
keep dragging his
sorry a*s in here?

                               Some people just can't take a hint.

Just use a sledgehammer myself. Even the neighbours know not to return after i lose the plot.

funny guy you are. Still unclear what the intention of our most recent correspondence is -- demonstration or participation? Lay it out for me.

[Paul Bell]

Probably leave it, i know she'll be back, minus the duffle coat. lol

nice metaphor here...

try stomping on him with your heel...maybe that will squash his repeated efforts to come back to life...or love if that be the case.

[Lyn Anderson]

Yup. Giving that a go next :)

Your poem reminds me of the Zombie bee.

Zombie Bee

If you smack a bug,
one that's flying free,
that's no way to hug
a small zombie bee.

She'll return with spite
with a buzz, a bite
fighting day and night
to stay in your sight.

[Lyn Anderson]

That is really neat. Thank you.

Just say...OO EE OO ah ah, ting tang walla walla bing bang. Sorry, your poem got that stupid song stuck in my head now. Very heavy duty piece here my friend. Keep squashing, you'll kill that big eventually.

[Lyn Anderson]

Yeah, I sure hope so. My divorce paper wielding arm is getting sore.

[Frieda P]

[Lyn Anderson]

[Frieda P]
