The Perks of Being a (Metaphorical) Zombie


The other day,

I decided to

(metaphorically)

kill myself


And if one were to ask me

how I'm

doing now that I'm

(metaphorically)

dead

and if I still

had the ability to process

emotions

I'd say

“Great, thanks, I'm

happier then I've ever been.”


The perks of being

a (metaphorical)

zombie;

one can't feel pain

I think I wrote this because zombies have been on my mind ever since the people working on the mural decided unanimously that in the event of a zombie attack, I would die first. I think this is really just my way of saying “fine then, I'd rather be a zombie anyways!” in a poetic (?) way.

  1. Ha! I can't stop laughing!! And kiki, it's only cause you're the smallest group, we don't have that many Asians, and following the rules of zombie movies the smallest ethnic group goes first. That or the dumb blonde. But we don't have one of those! That and youre a bit clumsy. Don't worry, though only I would survive anyway, cause im the HERO, so you'd have company, that is if you don't eat each other.
    Anywho, I loved the poem. It was a bit sarcastic which went with your reason for writing it so it goes nicely.

  2. I'M NOT BLONDE!! You're calling me dumb when you can't use the correct form of 'your'?? It would be 'you're'.
    AND I WOULD DEFEAT YOU BECAUSE I'M THE HERO AND I SAVE EVERYONE EXCEPT THAT DUMB GUY AND ME AND MY PALS LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER!!!!!

  4. Grammar could save a life! Look at this-
    "Lets eat, Kiki." or "Let's eat Kiki." Grammar saved the first one's life. The second one got eaten. DO YOU WANT TO BE EATEN? NO? THEN I SUGGEST USING PROPER GRAMMAR!
    And I do not have a god-complex. Heros are too cool for that.
