Shazaam, The Egyptian, Speaks His Mind Poem by elysabeth faslund

Shazaam, in ancient vernacular,
Spake utterances quite spectacular
To Anubis, God of the Dead.

They weren't softly spoken,
But, give them dutiful token...
For they cost Shazaam his head.

And this is what he said,

'I can't have an Afterlife.
I haven't got a tomb.
I cannot be mummified.
The Gods have no room

For one not of Royal Blood...
For one who has no money.
The Nile will treat me better
Than you and your BALONEY! ! '
