Poetry For Your Brains

In your hands is a poetry journal written by an undead poet, recounting his firsthand experience during the zombie plague. Little is known about the author before he turned into a zombie, but thanks to his continued writings in this journal - even after his death - you can accompany him from infection to demise. Through the intimate poetry of haiku, the zombie chronicles his epic journey through deserted streets and barricaded doors. Each three-line poem, structured in the classic 5-7-5 syllable structure, unravels a little more of the story. You'll love every eye-popping, gut-wrenching, flesh-eating page!

Zombie Haiku by Ryan Mecum is something I discovered whilst perusing my local bookstore for some other zombie lit. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the haikus formed an actual story, about a guy having a real bad day at work, instead of just being a random assortment of undead poetry. Another bonus was the size of the book: easy to carry with me in my bug-out bag without taking up much room. It would also make the perfect gift for any zombie fan this holiday season.

As always,
