Rome Was Not Built In a Day
Rome wasn't built in a day
When the Romans themselves
arrived to annex Egypt claim
it for it's Empire
And seen the Pyrmaids for
the very 1st time
They had been built and
stood already
Longer than if you or i
or anyone of us present day
Went on pilgrimage to view
them today
Because in fact they would
have already been in existence
For about nearly a millennium
before
You or i or even the Roman
empire was to set foot upon
The Memphis Plateau
Where the 3 Pyrmaids of Giza
Still reside till today
The 1st and 7th Wonder
of the World
With certain of it's sectrets
still safely intact
Least of all
How they in fact
We're able to be built at all
The most intoxicating mystery
Since stepping foot on the moon
An elixir of grail proportion
Thanking you once again
Sir D.K for
posthumously bringing
this to my attention
