  The Ravens 
  A flock of ravens floats upon the air over their prey, 
  Like a looming black storm cloud of gloom, 
  In the later hours of the death of the day, 
  They fight each other for room, 
  In the melee, one is injured it falls, 
  Blood and gore fill the air, 
  The air is filled with their dire calls, 
  Little did the observers of this carnage care, 
  To them, it was merely a display of the nature of the raven, 
  Upon the hour they fled, 
  They were neither crazed nor craven, 
  They were happy and well-fed.

  Defiance - A Post-Apocalyptic...

  My world is turning into a living nightmare. 
  My best friend has been murdered and turned into a zombie. I’ve fled what came way too close to a mad scientist’s lair for anyone’s good. I’ve stepped over the dead bodies of men, women, and children who I’ve risked my life for. Watched what little hope and security thousands of people have clung to for weeks go up in flames—and half of them even looking enthusiastic about it. And then the bastards killed another of my friends by turning her into an undead, super-strong monster—that I’ve had to stab to permanent death to prevent her from tearing apart helpless children. 
  My right hand is still sticky with her cooling, congealing blood. 
  Getting dragged off to God knows where kind of pales in comparison to that—but only so much. 
  And all that happened since earlier this morning. 
  I have no idea if I’ll still be alive come midnight—or if I even want to. 
  We thought the zombie apocalypse would be the worst that could happen to us. Looks like we were wrong. 
  When giving up isn’t an option, the only way out is through.
