There they are; Garden of Eden,
They do not hate, but curious,
The Garden of Eden; so rare,
And the shame they'll pass on to us.

Eve, smiling sweetly every day,
With a murderer in her womb,
Adam too is a part of our fate,
They both carry centuries' old doom.

Well, that was unexpectedly harsh "reality" with my coffee this morning. I appreciate your take on this very much!
