Divide and conquer, the method
In the Bible from the start
Eve, there in the Garden
Broke poor Adams hear
The Legend holds as true
The apple broke the deal
‘Tween God and the First couple
A wound that just won’t heal
King James it was that authorized
A collection of the books
Fall short within that given frame
Find your ‘booty’ on a hook
The serpent. . . as the story goes
Spun young Eve a line
Telling her how smart she’d be
If God’s word denied
Man created in God’s image
Yet simultaneously out of touch
Twisting in the wind
Deserving of not much
How depressing and quite dismal
To base your worth upon. . .
A story of separation
Just someone else’s pawn
