Time of the Zombie!

There is a time when a zombie roams the Earth;

 

Unthinking, unfeeling, uncaring, undead

 

He just plods along, an empty shell of humanity

 

He sees all and yet he sees nothing

 

He hears others' commands, yet seems to hear nothing

 

If you happen to see him, run for your lives,

 

Although you don't have to run very fast,

 

Because he has a peculiar lack of balance

 

From a car wreck suffered years ago

 

There's only one known cure for him,

 

That's sure to turn the zombie into a functioning

 

Human being; capable of understanding,

 

And acting like you all; and taking his

 

Place among the living;

 

Coffee!

Not a real zombie then; just someone who needs a caffeine fix.

I was afraid you were donig another political thing, but this is very clever.
