It was before dawn of man when
spirits flew silent over still water,
that two of them got their wings
entwined and fell into a clearing in the jungle.
When they awoke
they had lost the ability to fly,
but were of flesh and blood.
Eve’s sensuality tempted Adam;
arose the branch of an apple tree.
God was furious and said:
“And to think, in the middle of the day!”
From heaven descended a long dress,
high heeled shoe and a business suit.
“Now leave this place, go find your own underwear”
God sternly said, before slamming the garden’s gate
shut behind them.
