Can I crack the code
Or should I bother
Some combination
Obviously is the solution
A finite set of possibilities
But do I dare take the time
To solve this puzzle
Perhaps the mystery
Of what is within
The imagining of
The contents inside
May not at all match
The treasure expected
Only rumors inform me
The thrill of the cracking
And the mystery of the vault
Can be a deadlier combination
Than any set of numbers
Turns and twists and clicks
This safe will one day be solved
But still the lock remains
