The zombies of film and fiction

so harmless they seem,

ghoul-like robots walking.

Bone-crunching mayhem

on screen, on the page,

easy to take, fictionally.

Even Jane Austen and

the undead of Pemberley,

good clean fun, indeed.

But now the honey bee,

parasitized by the zombie-fly

abandons its hive at night.

A tragic and true zombee.
