God had Eden
Satan had a pleasure park of rollercoasters
Pac-Man machines and souvenir shops
(the quests were long
the merchandise over priced
the hot dogs cold)
and outside Eden
the traffic stretched for miles
– cars full of screaming children and half eaten fruit
– cars full of fuming parents with half price vouchers stuffed in pockets
others climbed over the fence to the garden of Eden
they bought a packed lunch with them
a blanket covered in cat hair
the garden was overgrown
the fruit was rotten
dogs ran wild
they made a mental note to write a one star review when they got home
