Here is a translation of a recently-discovered hieroglyphic proclamation of the Pharaoh <br />Of The Three Basins <br /> <br /> <br />I, Kinmgo Kaput, Lord of the Three Grand Lands <br />that Sink Every Time there is a Flood; <br />I, Lord of the Queen of The All Basins that Deliver <br />Rich Harvests and Rice and Lentils and that rules <br />the Nether Rooms in the Mansions; <br />I, Pharaoh and Lord of All Kingdoms <br />that ever existed before my Time on this Wretched Earth; <br />I, Lord of the Rich Lands and Lord of Wood and Metal <br />and Lord of a Thousand Such Designations; <br />I, King, Emperor, Pharaoh, Son of Heaven <br />and Descended of Stars; <br />I do solemnly swear and declare <br />you a Nincompoop for reading this, wasting your time idly <br />looking at lines not worth the space they inhabit; <br />You, waster of time reading lines of second-rate verse <br />rather than feeding the poor <br />or offering your hours at the House of the Wretched; <br />You, waster of time reading poems and verse <br />not worth the alphabet the language inhabits – <br />You, I declare a Nincompoop <br />and may you waste your hours in the Underworld <br />translating the lives of Ants into clay tablets of verse <br />that disappear after each line you carve; <br />and may you, nincompoop who wastes such time reading such empty verse, <br />may you so waste eternity <br /> <br />And thus have I spoken and thus is it recorded on this wall, <br />the Solemn Words (no laughing or sneering there!) <br />Of Kinmgo Kaput, Lord of the Three Basins <br />That have been left Unwashed by the Queen who lords over Home<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/kingmo-kaput-s-hieroglyphic-proclamation-discovered/
