First Sin

First of all, Eve took a bite. Then Adam tried the delight. The serpents plot. Adam knew it was not right, before he took that long plight. The serpents shot.

"When we ate the fruit we got our eyes opened on the spot." So there they sat. Beside a fire so hot with food cooking in a pot. Gone diplomat.
