It is forbidden to eat
To eat the fruit of love
In the garden of Human
Woman plucks it from the tree
The tree of ignorance
And gives it to Man
Man realizes they are clothed
And is embarresed he connot
Make her drop her brazier
They fall into love
And shall forever dwell
In paradise near to God
But
In paradise there groweth
Another strange fruit
And a strange snake
I thought perhaps this perfect opposite of the genisis story could have unconsciously influenced Christian thought over the centuries, giving rise to patriarcal systems of knowledge and a fear of ***.
