| Zombie Haiku by Ryan Mecum |
What does a poet do when he turns into a zombie? He chronicles his descent into mindless flesh-eating hunger with a series of clever and funny (and sometimes disgusting) haiku. Talk about creative! This 139-page book is hilarious, and I loved it! Here are a few of my favorite zombie haiku:

Below, they gather.
There's nothing quite like
the pain you feel while dying--

I keep saying "brains".
I remember other words,
but I just need one.
Happy Reading!
