ZOMBEH

Description

darkness falls across the land
the bookbinding hour is close at hand
binders crawl in search of blood
to terrorize y'all's neighbourhood (bookshop)
and whosoever shall be bound
with unbleached linen thread in a standard case-binding stitch
must stand and face the hounds of hell
and rot inside a chipboard shell
the foulest stench is in the air
of glue and vinyl and cotton cord
and grizzly stitching from every corner
is closing in to seal your doom
and though you fight to say alive
your body starts to shiver
for no mere mortal can resist
the evil of ... the zombie book...

(into maniacal laugh, in deep echo)

pages are construction paper, newsprint, ivory laid writing paper and heavily textured thai paper; covers are red and black vinyl (seriously glued down) in the style of michael's jacket over several layers of chipboard; machine stitching on cover, hand-sewn cotton cord embellishment on spine to mimic raised cord designs, fringing on bottom of spine.
