Ode To Pandora

Some rocks you don’t turn over
some tales you never tell

Some lights you never throw the switch
—some broth you never chill

...and some boxes you don't open! Nice one, Kurt. I recently read or saw something that made me think the story of Eve and her "forbidden fruit" is/might be based on the Greek myth of Pandora and her "box" that Zeus forbade her to open after he created her as the first woman.
