I seen the snake.
I let it tempt me.
I bit from the apple, her black hair stared me down.
"Come here my sweet, taste the forbidden fruit,"
I bit.
Hiss.
He slithered.
From your rib I fell.
"Come here my sweet."
Hiss.
I ate, I tasted, I bit. My taste buds tingled in delight
I fell.
40 days and 40 nights I fell. I could not bare the cross.
My feet were sore. My back ached.
I tasted the forbidden fruit. To the dirt
I feel.
Ashes to ashes I fall.
