A Drinking Song

January 28, 2018Zombie Yeats Leave a Comment

Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That’s all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die. I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you, and I sigh.… Continue Reading →

Fire and Ice

August 10, 2017Robert Frost 8 Comments

Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To… Continue Reading →

No Sam: A Zombie Poem

April 14, 2017Zombie Frodo Leave a Comment

No, Sam. I can’t recall the taste of food…nor the sound of water…nor the touch of grass. I’m naked in the dark–with nothing, no veil…between me…and the wheel of fire! I can see him…with my waking eyes! => No Sam.… Continue Reading →

April 14, 2017Philip Larkin 20 Comments

Not This Day: A Zombie Poem

April 9, 2017Zombie Aragorn Leave a Comment

from The Fall of Rome

February 26, 2017Auden Leave a Comment

The piers are pummelled by the waves; In a lonely field the rain Lashes an abandoned train; Outlaws fill the mountain caves. Fantastic grow the evening gowns; Agents of the Fisc pursue Absconding tax-defaulters through The sewers of provincial towns.… Continue Reading →

On Self

September 20, 2016C. S. Lewis Leave a Comment
