Eden
An apple was offered up in temptation-
Eden opened her mouth wide...
It was a bites sweet taste-done in haste--
That called forth Adams new bride;
Original sin slinked itself upon the ground--
While the snake slithered up the tree...
The branches bent as their love was spent--
Binding Adam and Eve for eternity;
