A bridge measures forty miles long. It can only hold 750 lbs.
A truck weighing exactly 750 lbs crosses the bridge.
As it reaches the middle, a bird weighing 2 lbs lands on it.
Despite the added weight, the bridge did not collapse.
Question: Why?

Golden treasures I contain, guarded by hundreds and thousands.
Stored in a labyrinth where no man walks yet men come often to seize my gold.
By smoke I am overcome and robbed then left to build my treasure anew.
