The Awaited One

Sources say the Awaited Mahdi was recently sighted in a coffee shop in Old Damascus. His Awaited Holiness was reportedly sporting a big white turban, a long black beard, red shirt and stonewashed denim. By all accounts, he looked extremely pale and haggard, “as though he was awake for a thousand and one years,” as one observer put it. Indeed, by all means, it seems that Livor Mortis is back in style, as legions of zombies continue to pour into the country killing their way in and through in search of that illusive peace.
