Eden drank our inheritance

A soulful kiss is but the illusion of
a serpent gone mad..
He denied us the kiss that comes
without knowledge because the
kiss of knowledge is frought with
the birth pangs of guilt..
We wanted the kiss of endless
burning suns, but we received the
lips of alien fire..
A flaming two- edged sword merely
spoke of a future time when passion
would be a childlike innocence where
we would bend our knees in the warm
red earth and smile the dream of a
thousand eternities.. Surely Eden has
a future-
