C is for…

Welcome to Day Three of your Essential Guide to Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse.

We all know it’s coming – there’s no point in pretending otherwise. Some have even interpreted the refusal to believe in global warming as a herald of the end of days (either that, or large portions of the population are susceptible to the machinations and propaganda of wealthy, vested interests in perpetuating the (profitable-for-them) status quo, relying on this portion of the populace reacting like proverbial frogs in a pan of water being heated slowly on the hob… or something like that).

Point is, the end is coming, you gotta be prepared, and you ain’t gonna have time to memorise a whole bunch of stuff when it happens.

You need a short guide to surviving the rise of the undead, covering you from A to Z… 

You need… Haiku of the Dead.

Look on the bright side!
No need for daily commute,
Living in your car…

Fuel perishes fast,
And will be used up quickly.
Find a bicycle.

Cannibalism
May seem a tempting option
When all food runs out

Resist at all costs,
Protect your humanity
By respecting theirs.

Hang onto your hope,
But don’t hold out for a cure.
Focus on living.

“You wrote this as part of a month-long challenge? What?!”

Throughout April, I will be joining the A to Z Challenge, posting six days a week to cover each letter of the alphabet… even that annoying “X”… For my theme, I have gone down the well-trodden, stereotypical, bit-of-a-cliché -really path of zombie survival tips… in haiku.

With tongue firmly in cheek, I hope you will join me for the month, and beyond 🙂

There are hundreds of blogs participating – over 1900 in fact. I will be doing my best to check out as many of these as possible. You can too via this link: http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/p/a-z-challenge-sign-up-list-2016.html
