What must I not do, Lord?
What must I not do, Lord?
Should have been asked of the lord once more by Adam and Eve.
For when they disobey they was headed for personal discovery.

Adam was placed in his personal serenity of peace to work
With the ability to eat from any tree except the tree with knowledge about good and evil.

Like a baby he was dictated to act.
Not inquire of God the reasons why not?
Soon ,  he would be blessed with woman.
For the Lord God didn't want him to be alone.

They was naked without awareness of themselves.
Until they met the serpent.
Who deceive them with various questions?

But by listening to the master of manipulation.
They soon had their eyes open wide with knowledge.
That the serpent predicted would happen.
Except they couldn't be like God in the least.

This is where sin begin?
They instantly comprehended they was naked.
Knowledge they didn't have before.

And like us before strangers, they covered up.
And like a child who did something wrong?
They hid until challenged by God to appear.

So question?
Why did God not want them to know themselves?
Personal discovery always leave us upon a awakening journey.

Also, this is where blame begin?
He blamed her.
She blamed the serpent.
And God punished the serpent.

This is where discipline came in?
Followed by pain and consequences.
But discovery was something they faced.

God did require things to multiple.
Which they did accordingly.
They are the parents of Cain and Abel.
Both with traits of them.
