Red
It was the red apple that showed
All the way down to life,
Bare, beautiful, bitter and sweet
To every bit of bite, denied by Him!
Her heir couldn't hide its lustre
That was hidden to him first,
Later exposed
Till she bore the fruit inside
The fruit of love,lust and humiliation
How did it come to happen
That all the various colors got
Combined to a white and black, but no red?
Though the story was thus written
In sweet blood of forbidden fears
She was abandoned to a human heaven, the apple
