Adam and Eve and the raising of Cain
Have you ever thought about the raising of Cain?
Where did that boy get a rage so completely insane
that he ended up murdering his younger brother?
Did he learn it from his father and mother,
who must've been in such deep, psychological pain
for having caused Eden to go down the drain.

Are we like the mythical Adam and Eve?
Are we like the mythical Adam and Eve?
(A lone voice whispers to his true love as Mother Moon, watches)
My Sophia
Are we are like the mythical
Adam and Eve
Walking upon the grey shores
Of a lost planet
Hidden in the deepest of space
Our true love holding us
Knee-deep in make believe
As if buried alive
Where we will witness
The birth of

ADAM AND EVE
In Eden when Adam meet Eve
He said, “You are nude I perceive”
A bit of a madam,
She offered to Adam
A bite of a juicy James Grieve
He knew the fruit was forbidden
And said their bits should be hidden.
But she said, “I insist,”
And, too weak to resist,
Adam did what he was bidden
There’s a moral, you might have guessed,
For

ADAM AND EVE
First biological parents, Adam and Eve
to each other and for one another, they did cleave
created by God with His workmanship* divine
yet, they failed midst human nature’s whine.
First couple in their love’s partnership zest
both resided in great paradise crest
enjoying full blessings’ gain
but soon were banished in pain
when temptation won during their pride’s test.
Adam and Eve

Every day another mass shooting.
There seems to be no end in sight
We turn on the TV news.
As we watch the carnage.
Politicians pray.
And do nothing.
Gun Ghosts cry.
Guns do
Kill.

Pilgrim's Paradox
We once did walk amongst the leaves;
Outside of Eden, Adam grieves.
I am thrice Holy, keep away;
Unclean sinners I yearn to save.
To keep My law cannot be done;
Because of love, I send My Son.
You are guilty, you must die;
I crush Myself to draw you nigh.
You grieve and sigh, for you are wrong;
Flee to My bosom, where

Feast of Adam and Eve
Seldom now, but once popular,
carnal Feast of Adam and Eve.
A Christian tale, if you believe,
spun, no doubt, by a gospeler.
Late December, Mystery Play –
downfall, the original sin.
Played on stage, moral tale to spin,
a day both frightening and gay.
Reenactment of solemn scene
was surely presented well-posed.
Original sin, acts exposed,
with performances now obscene.
Paradise Tree prettified strung
with

Singing Flower of Eve and Mary
A serpent poured soothing wisdom into Eve’s ear
For her to eat gnosis fruit for unborn Seth
So its seeds were entombed in her soul without fear
This gnosis remained unborn and without breath
Christ himself, the Word, flew into Mary’s ear
So breath and life itself entered her sleeping womb
To become the awakened

Trampling Death With Bliss
They both ate dates from the tree of gnosis
Froze the whirling wheels in place by their might
Crushed the cherubim’s heads with bliss
White mice who put cat and eagle in fright
White lambs who put man and cherub to flight
They felt the crushed dates flowing like a gust
Tasting the full moon’s

Everything Is a Myth and Magic
You are the yellowness of Eve's red apple
You... the fire of mystery
Like a text without an audience
Like a transcript of a dream
Like a fantasy full of illusions
Like an undisturbed wave
Like running away...to a fantasy
You are the closest point to freezing
You are the most cursed spell
You are the most logical answer
For two parallel lines
You are a

For Folly Was When Adam and Eve Ate
For Folly Was When Adam And Eve Ate
Drowning the naked landscape in a fog
Far away bursting city in its smog
Along the beach sea-salt floats right on in
They, bustling crowd, treading footprints of men
Of the coming storm we dare shut the door
Raging sea-winds batter innocent shore
With the angry weather the mind goes blank
Noisy bars carefree, puke

Adam and Eve
Babe you are more than attractive
We can live like Adam and Eve
Babe you are mine I believe
Give me your mind my mind’s thief
Babe from God hope I receive
If I am wrong please forgive
Babe I know you are not cheap
God knows my love is how deep
Babe as you
