It maybe helpful for you to follow each of us,but that is up to you.

Here's my go (don't worry I'm exempt from winning anything)
My safe haven is now all but gone
The knocks made me lose my brawn
I escaped out the fire hatch
Before my sanity was snatched.
Out on the road now
I have no chow
I don't know what to do
Don't want to bump into you!
Would a up in a tree be okay?
A place to silently pray.
A deserted flower shop?
In need of a good mop.
Tired, need to choose
out on the road I will lose
What about the van?
Sounds a good plan.

Oops! Also, a little typo in the contest posting! You said "Once Day 1 Round 2 of STEEM-POCALYPSE has been posted, there will be a new post Pocalypse-Poetry post by @superbuckle"
Don't forget the 's' at the end of @superbuckles (it's right everywhere else in the post, that just happened to be the instance I clicked.)

Oh I fear, the end is near... what is that? I think I hear
Someone knocking at my door? Or breaking in? Oh no, what for?
I must get out, I have to flee, down the fire escape for me,
alas I went for option 3, and now I'm chilling in a tree.

I usually go with free-verse, but found inspiration that allowed me some easy rhymes. So I went with it. I'm actually rather pleased with how it turned out. (Don't worry guys, as cohost I can't win anything. This is just for fun.)

Heya! I wrote my poem here. I included a link to this post, I hope that suffices for the resteem requirement, as it should do the same thing as if I'd resteemed (send interested followers here)

I just really don't like to put anything but my original content in my feed, though I'm always happy to shout out within a post.

Papa does not know where I hide,
If Papa finds me,
I do not care because I smell roses.
Survival is the Key
in this game,
Both night and day
My stomach will want to feed,
But Papa will hide even the pepper.
:D

I hope I'm not too late!
My dad just encouraged me to enter!
My entry:
There I was, reading a book.
When the apocalypse started, and whole earth shook.
So I took off my glasses and looked outside.
There were cops and mobs on every side.
And now days later as I start to freak,
A bang on my door and an awful reek.
I dive out the window and do a tumble roll.
Those manga books really helped my flow.
Where do I go, no time to decide.
I run into a flower shop and crawl and hide.
After dark I'll move out of town.
Just trying to survive makes this kid frown.
Good luck everyone!!!
