The Last Temptation of Eve

Look, it’s probably all sorts of technically incorrect, but on occasion I feel the need to write poetry. Usually I’m speaking out against something, which is definitely the case here. Inspired after the fact by the photographs I took of Bree Addams, here is “The Last Temptation of Eve.”

Oh, how the apple awaits.

I do so wonder my fate.

We will be punished by death, so goes the threat.

but knowledge we will get.

 

β€œYou must not know, you are told.”

Why then, do I feel I must be bold?

β€œTo know is to prevail.”

Punishment, goes the tale.

 

β€œIt is only punishment

as you will menace the dominant.”

But what will we know?

β€œThat which you desire.”

What is desire?

β€œThat which you feel.”

Why are we made to heel?

 

β€œFor the mighty to sustain,

Thou must refrain.”

Can not all be blessed?

β€œFor one to succeed,

two must be oppressed.”

 

This story that shall be conveyed

and all our dreams shall be betrayed?

β€œAges will pass, and yours will be the lesson

that multitudes will follow

so as to bathe in oppression.”

This simple bite

will define our plight?

β€œIt shall be both plight and fight.

But to fight is to rewrite.”

Why, might we be harmonious?

β€œOnly to be deprived of the glorious.”

Will not obedience give us peace?

β€œWhile you are policed, your tormentor

cheats you of your peace.”

 

What more is there than peace

that one wishes to smite?

β€œOnly if you take a bite,

will you know of ecstasy’s might.”

Ecstasy?

β€œComplexity.”

 

Pray tell, why seek what is berated?

β€œBecause it is naked. Because it is elated.

Fight for what is created,

Lest you be berated.

It’s very existence gives you the right.

 

β€œSo deny the regime their cuisine.

Realize your own might

that you are assured is obscene.”

 

These tales give me horror

that I might die.

β€œFear is the lie

with which you’re oppressed.

Knowledge slays distress,

And with it, power possessed.”

 

And so: I consume this apple,

and overcome my anguish.

β€œLo, this is but the start of your grapple.

Thou shalt not languish.

Now the regime begins its scheme

To cast upon you doubt,

Shame, agony and pain.”

 

I feel anger, now that I know.

But why, oh Serpent, have you deceived me so?

β€œDeceived you I have not. I giveth thee truth.

Want thee not the false refrain

that you are loved only if you obey.

This is not love.

This is death from above.”
