Ancient Egypt

hieroglyphics would have been more appealing in epitomizing a backward spin to the ancient scenes the heart of a glorious dynasty to have existed a time machine of reviving words will do the trick and pay tribute to the famed mammies of the land that hath meaning to the word civilization great colossal deities ushering us into the antiquities of a man as famous as to be villained in gewish tales footsteps trailing to his heightened heels majestically beaming in a flock of maidens a lengthy beard, the sovereignty of the wielder awaiting the slaughter of a mighty emperor another victim has fallen into the hands of a beast that's conquered kingdoms of old the king of the jungle stood no chance against a dynasty as great as the Nile held by hung-men his pale eyes cry to the blue skies that fathered the green plains worldly acclaimed for beastly migration first came Samson in followed pharaoh to boast of having slain a mighty cat, vast seas from the splendor- lit savannahs the gates close and we drift back into our time call it a glance into ancient civilization
