Zombies v Robots


Zombies in armies came to pass, in a final corruption of a homosapien corps
One last stand for our humanity, but beaten in battle and defeated in war...
Months had turned into years, as the virus kept proliferating, in deadly waves
Buried darker and deeper, our AI filtered the air, into the depths of our graves
Intelligent designers kept the writhing maggots fed, but fed them poisoned air
Entombed like rabid rats in sewers, they were imprisoned in their zombies lair
Sub-humanity, all dwelled in hell and were fed on the flesh, of familiar animals
Vicious and rotting, they made their escape, as hungry as new born cannibals
Ravenous anthropophagites, herded through the streets, of their ruined homes
Observed from high, in the purified sky, by squadrons of new glistening drones
Blood poured, guts disgorged, as robots ranged, with slaughtering mismatches
Open pits for pyres, lit up the world, as humanity was left in cinders and ashes
The war was lost (it never was), but the chiller's still running in the last morgue
Something's there and it stirs; the first of a kind and a hybrid, a zombie cyborg

2/10
