Sad Sayonara, Haunting Haiku


We've reached the end of Week of The Living Dead.  To see you on your way - a way now far safer for all the information you have gleaned here - are two haikus.  Thank you Jeff and Paul, who prove with their simple words that the imminent zombie apocalypse may bring not only great horror, but possibly great art.

Winter of mankind
The dead live, the living die
Now, where's  my shotgun?
