Dead Again? No, not again I buried you in a shallow grave, yet somehow you clawed through the earth and arose once more Every time I kill you you come back, so now I have smashed your head open with a shovel, buried you yet again Could you please stay dead this time? Joanne Fisher
Killing people is wrong by the way. Just thought I should mention that. Though if they do come back to life again, then they are zombies…
This was written with the Go Dog Go Cafe Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge: January 11, 2022. The prompt was to begin with the line “No, not again”.
Please support this blog and say no to zombies – Ko-fi 🙂

Very dark, I have to agree killing people is not recommended. Before I read the disclaimer the poem took on a different meaning for me. I saw it as a memory we’d like to forget buried in our minds that keeps coming back, that just won’t die. As always, nice work!
