Zombie Surfeit



  • Undergraduate campus of Maryland Institute College of Art, Howard Street Bridge, Baltimore, from hallway outside locked office Graduate Building Maryland Institute College of Art, yesterday, first of two graduation services for Planet, who's done with the Masters.
  • Photo bigger, better, at other place.
  • I almost - almost - changed the blog format there, changed it to the format of this dead place, but didn't.
  • Next to MICA's graduate building is the best art supply store I've ever shopped, bought new watercolors and stencil templates, the fuck is wrong with me.










THE NEW ZOMBIE

Rae Armantrout

       1
        
I stare at a faint
spinning disc
              
in the black
endlessly
     
ready to pounce.
           
        2 
              
I actually say,
              
"I'm so sick
of zombies!"
         
        3
           
Viral relics 
in the genome?
        
Genes that switch
themselves off
        
and on,
        
unthinking
but coordinated?

Zombie surfeit
          
Half-off zombie.
          
The best zombie
imitation.
