Mortality
he took the tree of life away
for we are unworthy
for we eat knowledge
the forbidden fruit
we drink from the whores cup
and call it sin (the rising of the cup is sin)
we follow the beast
and give him the name of god
he took the tree of life away
for what would happen
if the beast and whore
ate the sweetest of fruits
