Adam's Side Kick

I’ve been a pain in your side “Why let me see…” “You’re made from God but you say I’m made from thee?” You talk to the animals and to the sky? As the moon lights the night you talk to my…thigh? You want to run bare **** all through the woods We’ll if you keep doing that you won’t have ANY “goods?” So, you don’t like the fig leaf. It’s a bad choice? “Well, use your words! Speak up! You got a voice.” “You work? So you say. Just what do you do?” All we eat are the fruits and some vegetable stew. I cry at the sunrise. I’m not used to these eyes. And I still can remember being inside God’s sigh. I cry cause the wind blows dust at moon rise I’m frightened and wonder what’s the next …SURPRISE! Neighbors? What neighbors? Toss the leave use a peel what care I for the wonder of what you’ll reveal. Eden was wonderful, and ignorance bliss yet so is the delight of a your so human kiss. I love you, I’ll stay no mater the plight and raise up our children and handle the fright. *dedicated to Larry Belt's Adam / A Pain in my Side
