Dear Adam, Poem by jkd jkd

yes, i know it was wrong to eat the apple.
yes, i know i am to blame.
yes, i know it is my fault you became a sinner.
no, wait a minute - didn't HE give you a brain of your own?
couldn't you have refused?
of course you could have refused!
why didn't you?
what would have happened then?
would i have got thrown out and HE would have made you a better mate?
or would you have begged for me?
well, would you?
