The 59 officials and priests of the 26th dynasty,
raised from their millennial darkness,
their coffins and mummies in bright colours
again among the sands of Saqqara,
and perhaps they would understand -
these were men of the government, after all -
that they are here to bring money
to the ruler's coffins, to hide
the 23 executed who are being put
in their own dark holes in the ground.
