Last week we held a contest for the best zombie-themed haiku. It was very hard choosing a favorite, because most of them were really good!
The winning entry was penned by vekuum:
You lopped off my arms!
Thanks, now I can squeeze through your
Windows at night. Yum!
Vekuum wins the game of Plants vs. Zombies, plus a copy of Ryan Mecum’s book Zombie Haiku (shown above).
Here are the runners-up (sorry, no prize):
Gray rain falling down
Neighbors becoming Zombies
in cold October— billstewart
Brains are like candy,
sweet grey matter slips through lips,
My arm just fell off.— slida
The radio told
me that I would be safe here
Crowded Stadium— apocalypticbeef
Though dead, it lives on.
Zombie? Brain-eating corpse? No:
General Motors.— andyhavens
Budget for plastic
guns, pasta guts, Wilhelm scream,
is budget enough.— bookninja
crunching through his brain
I realized I no longer cared
whether he loved me— victriviaqueen
Within the coffin
the cry came from a dead man
reanimated— BCJ
Groaning getting loud
Barricades won’t hold for long
Nice knowing you all— necorium
Thanks to everyone for playing!
