zombie punchline

lily white and all-teeth grinning
the retching and the drool
pick apart a single line
and see that it's no use

here they come to skulk among us
here they come to feast
to resurrect an empty vessel
and sing you off to sleep

disenchanted lullabies
and saccharine for the swill
a single drop of toxic waste
they'd rather see a spill

my head's a mess of heavy fog
my mind's already made
i'm gonna join the cause, i guess
at least i might get laid

hare-brained schemes in the
godless hours
the longest stretch of night
ill-conceived in the cemetery
by the darkest light
