part 3

the stranger saw the yearning, stirring,
light glimmered in her greedy eyes!
Adam, squatting just off the path, dull expression,
completely absorbed playing with a bug on a stick.
The stranger gave not a second thought to her partner,
knowing Eve must be won over in order to break her pact.
So he whispered in her ear, tickling her rancid butter brain,
promising and cajoling, of what he said will forever be unknown
a dark secret between her and the man/serpent who offered her
the forbidden fruit. Gazing into her uncertain eyes he took a bite,
"See, no poison or lightning strikes, all is well with me..." was said
Eve saw it was so, she took a rapacious bite as her desire began.
She broke through Adams reverie and offered the fruit up to him.
Juice dribbled down his chin, while Eve looked around, surprised!
In a bright flash of light, they felt fingers in their backs
ushering them swiftly to the gate that would never open to admit them again.
God boomed in a thundering voice; "The tree of Life/knowledge has spoken..."
Eve suddenly felt ashamed of their nakedness, trying to cover herself.
"What the heck is that ugly stumpy thing between your legs" she demanded.
Adams answer was to pull a leaf from a Fig tree with which he covered "the thing."
Then Eve banged on the gate, clinging to it, "but, where are we to go?"she cried.
The guardian at the gate threw back Her cloak, Laughing a mighty laugh, She
just pointed to the unknown, saying, "your story doesn't end here"...
