in the age before sin
i lived with gods and mutes
upon the hill

there
the first truth tasted ,
poisoned fruit

the first of many deaths

A lot to be said for "silence is golden," huh.  You've painted the true feel of innocence in the first part of this..."gods and mutes."  And in the second part, the bitter bite of losing it.  Saving both of yours tonight, Raph.   ...jo

Oh I adore this one, very nice write Raph.
Nice and sharp.

Makes me wonder if one would rather live with bliss or live with many deaths and gain insight and have pain.

The eternal question, yes?

Love to see you writing.
Miss it.
