One by one, but soon
in multiplying
throngs,
grab experiences,
hold them down,
crack them wide-
open, and feast upon
their contents.
No one had told us
they were so strong.
Yet we fail
to connect this
to the zombie
apocalypse we'd
read about;
so, even though
we're doomed, we go
right on talking—
like nothing's
even wrong.
