It is written that Adam and Eve were kicked
out of paradise to pain and suffering
because Eve enticed Adam to
taste the fruit from the tree of knowledge.
This is simply a misapprehension
made by prudish patriarchs.
Adam looked at Eve and found her good.
Overwhelmed by her beauty
a great longing took over his senses
and committed concupiscence.
He did not need to consume the fruit from the tree
to know the good thing lying next to him.
Eve’s earthly smell, well developed hips
the round pointy breasts were so potent
he decided that it was much better to
hold her in his embrace and enjoy sex
rather than sit around in Paradise
taking care of god’s garden.
Adam may have been innocent
but he was not stupid.
