Mason's Poem: Living Dead
"Humans are afraid
Afraid of death
Afraid of deadlines and shifts
Afraid of being nice to others
Afraid of expressing ourselves
But when the darkness comes
Humans are afraid
Afraid of the unknown
Of the can’t be seen
Of the living dead
It comes to you
Slowly, slowly
Step by step
Unconscious mind
But conscious stomach
Hungry
Thirsty
For blood and flesh
You can’t hurt them
You can’t hide from them
You can’t beat them
Because they are dead
But still alive.."
