ThE EgYpTiAn SuN BeAtS On YoUr BaCk As YoU DiG In ThE SaNd You feel like you’re covered in sand and might never be able to wash it away This thrills you You feel like you belong here in the Valley of the Kings You’re surrounded by a crew of other archaeologists and volunteers But you’re the leader of this expedition You’ve found gold pieces and jewelry scattered in the earth over the past weeks Your goal is to find the lost tomb of a king You press your shovel into the earth with all your weight Crack There’s solid stone behind the crumbling dirt You take your chisel and chip away as quickly as you can A hole forms in the stone You keep chiseling until the hole is large enough to look through You turn on a flashlight and peer through the hole All you see are glittering jewels and gold You’ve achieved your goal You’ve found a spectacular tomb in the Valley of the Kings 5
