Thick as Thebes

In leather assless drawers making hieroglyph shapes

Pyramid stages, Egyptian aspects on display

Clearly to this magus

I can’t wait, break the display case and take it; way of the mage

Better afterwards for sorry saying

Pepper tree branches and rafters

Rats they’re after me

They want to see me split and torn, pulled fore and aft

Until I’m malformed, tethered to braying horses

Just because their great Lord’s laws we forbore o’er and o’er.
