The Fool

So, You'd like to have it all? chaser of love, foolish girl It seems you've never learned...the days simply advance your youthful yearning your hopes have failed you yea,you've never learned you're cold as stoned winter night...your appearance is a deceitful one She is Eden's evil.... A fool to be fearsome of lonesome moments...no matter how few and far they may be You'd like to have it all.... Can't say you deserve it Your heart has failed you time again... blind is the one with desperate lust for love's ideals Your youth has failed you time and time again

What an amazing perspective of "Eden's evil," Kalonji! I love the chastising tone in this poem -- foolish girl who thinks she should "have it all." Awesome! Love, carolyn

quite a perspective..yet don't blame the mythical Eve....Adam didn't have to be a moron did he? Woman is not sin ominous with evil, thats just man looking for an out! Good verse if not for the negative woman bashing. Yes, I'm touchy.
