Eve and the apple

I don't know why that bitch Eve ate that apple? Why did Eve eat the apple? maybe she was cold maybe she sought something more maybe the girl was craving missin' somethin', feelin' bold Tired of bein' Adams whore His remnant piece, a carved out plaything How did the apple feel sinking into her belly, knowledge swelling up from within devouring the void and filling it with song, whispering promises sweeter n' sin Why did Eve eat the apple? Woman born of Adams rib All curves and beauty because man was lonely plucked her own damn worth from the knowledge tree Sharp juice dripping down her chin, sipping the first mothers milk For if God is the father, knowledge is the mother And she holds us warm and safe in her arms teaches us her ways, tryin' to keep us safe from harm But will send us on our way; her way is not to smother Why did Eve eat the apple? the blame and shame that followed her out from Edens shade for picking up a single fruit that was placed within her shivering reach That old book written by so many men say she strayed God, he wasn' mad, just time for the kids to leave home. Every child has to leave the nest to roam. For if God is the father, knowledge is the mother And she holds us warm and safe in her arms teaches us her ways, tryin' to keep us safe from harm. But will send us on our way; her way is not to smother The first to gain knowledge, the one to choose to share it, the one hated for it it shouldn't be about why she ate the apple, it should be about why she didn't eat it all and leave Adam in the dust Girls been suffering for her moment of compassion for long enough; there's no love where there's no trust.
