Hieroglyphs

If I could go back to 3100 BCE
I would make sure to go see
The tombs filled with hieroglyphs and mummies
I would sail down the NIle and grab fruit from the trees
Like a caterpillar, I snuggle
Into three warm layers. I’ve
Built my cocoon, shield from
The elements for a few sweet hours;
In my simple sarcophagus,
Only nightmares can catch me now.
