If you want a delicious snack, you eat an apple.
But if you want to converse with God, you eat the thorn apple! -M.K.

Eden’s Apple

And when Adam ate the apple
and looked up-
He saw Eve.
Eve in the Mountains,
Eve in the flowers.
And he knew:
Woman makes life,
And the Shame of Man
Forever makes war.
The spell was cast,
Higher and higher,
Away from this doom they flew!
But alas, the Thorn Apple did the trick.
The Gabriel trumpet resounded with the
Death Angel’s malevolent release:
Then the River of Gnowledge
ran over their heads
And thru Everything.
Whereupon being cast down
They Foresaw
Within the blink
of the Inner Eye,
All of Man’s Evil,
Done in the Name of Good!
