Mar 2020
The rain sleeps in the bed of my sullen eyes
And the lighting crashes inbetween the synapses in my mind

Losing Eden
I remember the way Eve looked
When she died eating

Her face used to be
Redolent roses
On the palette of her cheeks
A soft cotton sweet

Her ******* were the purest peace
She had a heart of gold
Before she sold it to the beast

And as his thunder rolled in the deep of the cold
I lost the glow in the woman given to me

She gave
And I did eat

And that's when we became human
After we consumed some of the wickedest tree

That's when the rain came
And slept in my eyes swollen veins

They were black skies
Embedded in the darkest gray
That sang an orchestra of pain

It was just one mistake
Perfection had to make

Because it's just too hard
For our flesh to obey
The One who'd create

The Snake🐍
