In his heavenly abode, Adam reigned
Eve consorted with equal bliss
Yearned for the forbidden fruit
But was satisfied with Adam’s kiss
Eve could resist temptation no more
Finally ordered Adam to pluck the fruit
The mistaken Monarch refused
Eve died, heartbroken by the truth
To fill the void, stray Adam bedded her sisters
Morn, Aft and luscious inky Night
With pleasure, ruled over his kingdom
Bereft of the sunshine bright
Alas, the fruit from the tree of knowledge
Today, still unplucked stands
In man’s Garden of Eden
Untouched by time’s hand
Madam Anonymous
