A Hell-Bent Serpent

God said to lonely Adam
I will make you Eden,
But you are forbidden
To have your own wisdom. 

You shouldn’t eat from the tree
That I have indicated to thee
As it will make me unhappy
To see you understand like me. 

If you eat its fruit you’ll die
So do not even bother to try,
As I will roar from the sky
With a wrath of goodbye. 

God made Adam his wife, Eve,
But she was to unwisely deceive,
As the serpent made her believe
She should eat the fruit with greed. 

They now new good from evil
Which gave them a bitter-chill
As they hid from God’s call
As they were revealing their all.
