Oh how the fence chains clink

When the dead think
They might find one to be weak
Their nails scratch
Their limbs thrash
Against the fence in the never ending
hunger for the living


The author's comments:

The inspiration for this piece is the amazing novel, The Forest of Hands and Teeth.  The Forest in the book and the Main character, Mary's, feelings for the undead were my inspiration for this Poem. If you like it, you should check out the book!
