Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Disturbing My Peace

I knew it was too good to last.
Long forgotten and left alone.
But then some snoop enthusiast
Dug me up. My cover was blown.
Buried with me was lots of gold,
And so of course, in greedy haste,
My body parts got hacked, all told.
The gold face mask did get replaced,
And I went on public display.
Now the thrillseekers choose to strut
Me au natural all the way.
The weak chinned, buck toothed boy King Tut.

I was buried for centuries.
Now all my parts - the whole world sees.
