GOLD (C)RUSH.

Time for work

Toiling with many a brick

On with the job

No time to rob,

Every treasure...

For our own pleasure..

Hush, do you hear that sound.

What’s that buzzing so loud?

The group of thieves

Spot a swarm of bees

They had ignored the signs,

Caution, tomb has deadly traps.

Off they scatter

Like gaseous matter

In a corner

They soon cower

From the growls

Much louder than a bear

A form stands tall

It sees them all

They have woken

him: Tutankhamon.

The ground shakes

Was that an Earthquake?

Their bodies land-

In a pile of sand.

They get buried alive

None of them survive

All for the love of gold—

They will now be mummified!
