These zombies all stumbled forward
blank expressions on their faces
minutes before rushing to their work
a busy midweek day in the city
no warning of that deadly infection
that came in a fine vapour
sprayed from a plane far overhead
creating the living dead!
A few minutes after it dropped to ground
it had completely evaporated
thousands contaminated in the one strike
so many more at first unaffected
confronted with hoards of flesh-eating
beasts that many had known before
who chased without hesitation or any pity
as violent death came to the city!
From their headquarters through cameras
observed their experiments
relishing the success with a contented smirk
scientists and dark suited elite
satisfied the virus created was the solution
their aim controlled de-population
but rapid mutation had not been anticipated
it would make their plans complicated!
Their initial assessment a total miscalculation
as even rodents transported it
to once safe protected areas of their families
a pandemic now out of control
with no anti-viral antidote for their protection
the privileged migrated below ground
for conservation into pre-built cities and sealed
from their abominations were shield!
Leaving the masses wandering as the living dead
was not part of their cunning plans
being trapped like prisoners deep under the earth
had decided to reclaim the surface
prepared teams cautiously made their way back up
as all communications were cut
so there was no advance warning of what to expect
or from what dangers themselves to protect!
As the massive blast doors slowly opened prepared
after ten years to see daylight and death
for any situation together that moment each shared
in unison took that first surface breath
yet nothing could brace any of them for what waited!
