First Came Night

The dawn rises over an eerie place
After a night of giving chase
The mindless wonders amble on
All senses dulled or gone

There are fewer people now
How they came, nobody knows how
The zombies are coming, more and more
Leaving trails of gore and gore

Escaping, fleeing the scene
To somewhere else, you've never seen
Attempted shelter is a joy
But the zombies outside claw at the glass, curious as a boy

Material wealth and much excess
If it falls, will leave much mess
Will we survive? Nobody knows
The zombies come and civilisation goes

Mystical gleaming of perfume off glass
Fur coats, money and food, all in mass
Free for all, but obsessed by selfishness
People own, without purchase, it's meaningless

Raiders and looters, eye up the prize
The following is of no surprise
Shattered dreams of nirvana lost
For all this, what is the cost?

Lives gone, the light dulls
The loss of human life, un-natural culls
A splattered mess left intact
Hopes and dreams for escape compact

Minimal fuel, no chance of life anymore
Will they get to shore?
To flee, head somewhere else to survive
Leaving the new slaughter of the hive
