Zombies
Want to nibble on my mind
Rotting, brain devouring zombies
That's what we'll become

Scattered bodies
And the truck we left behind
Promises we made each other
If that's what we become

Can it be that all the zombies hemmed us in?
Or can we make the house and get inside?
If we had the chance to barricade within?
Tell me, would we? Could we?

Zombies are implacable but still
I raise the hatchet and dismember
a writhing arm there on the sill
Overwhelming us together
You know it's now or never
I struggle to remember
What you'll become
What you'll become

I'm surprised no one's mentioned cigarettes (transported from the US to Canada) or pharmaceuticals (transported from Canada to the US). In a militant environment, anyone may carve out a niche for their own private, completely righteous domain.

I got Gibson, but I don't know him:

Individuality vs. tyranny
Cybernetics
Patriotism is foolish
common courtesy
The ladies warn each other
I'll surprise you
It's a craft
we could listen more than we talk
intriguing theories
The glass is twice the necessary size

Just to show that you don't have to pick 'rape and mind control" to get Gibson as a result. :-/

There's quite a lot of room for variation. Most of these if I only change one answer, there's exactly one answer that moves it away from Gibson. Which is interesting.
