Sense Sonnet - Chiller

The Screaming Mummy

A mummy, 3000 years old,
Was discovered in Egypt, and
Then a mystery did unfold.
Solvers did strive to understand.
The "Screaming Mummy" he was known,
Because the mouth was open wide
As though in anguished scream full blown.
In pain and fear he must have died.
The leading theory to date is
He was a prince hanged for the crime
Of foul assassination biz,
Killing the Pharaoh of the time.

Though he was found in a royal tomb,
He was marked for eternal doom.
