"Mellified Man"
There is a man buried in the sand.
His body stuck in an urn of honey,
That his owner wanted to sell for money.
The man said, "Am I dead? Or sleeping a very deep sleep?"
"Don't move!" Said the owner, "Don't even creep!
Or else you will spoil the honey and I'll never get my money!"
The owner walked away and left the man to stay.
"Will I ever see the light of day as I rot away in this jar of honey"
Said the man.
"Just so my owner could get some money?"
He waited and waited for the light of day, but years would pass until he found his own way
There was a merchant who sold fine wares, he wore fancy clothes and had golden hairs.
"Ah!" said the merchant, as he found a lump in the sand, "I wonder, don't I wonder, if here lies a mellified man!"
He dug and he dug and he heard a big THUNK!
This is the urn, the buried man's trunk.
He picked up the urn of honey but sold it for money.
"Oh, no!" Yelled the man, "This isn't funny!"

"Oh, no!" Yelled the man, "This isn't funny!" ( I thought this was good so far. I also liked how it kind of made me contemplate. I do feel like you could add a little bit more to conclude the story.)
