God and serpent’s urgent staff meeting
hey i have been crazy
insane raving mad
for a very long time
lunacy in my heart
mind untouched
by Your lamentations
free will i heard You say
i hid behind the tree
to bring down Your precious creation
ha
he fell for it with ease
the girl well the girl
what can i say mere little rib
it really wasn’t her fault
the fruit forbidden
say it so
c’mon i know
it wasn’t really wrong
was it
not at all
no You just wanted
quiet little baa baa sheep
now about the girl
perhaps You were a bit
too swift
in punishing the children
wasn’t a life long
union with the that lad You made enough
a violet fig leaf cloak was that all
that he could muster
in Your image but not Your cunning
oh ho ho i beg to differ
the girl she knew before she bit the fruit
that she would know almost as much as You
and that her offspring would be Queens
and through the 7th bloodline
have eternal life
however there have been some complications
with the plan
of how it’d be
You did say
life would be a painful liability
but through the vastness of our
house the sky so filled with stars
and in the heart
of every meat made son and daughter
a darkness deep and raw
the tablets floods covenants plagues or lords
vaticans dinosaurs holocausts or even Roman laws
have failed to temper down
their self destruction
there’s a global mass malfunction
with a mid speed hell stung death of spirit
the streets of the Garden are strewn

Love the whole theme of the Garden of Eden and temptation but particularly the above….and let’s not forget the great title you started with…setting the scene.
