It Was The Dark Day Innocence Died Poem by Terence George Craddock

once upon a time as written in the Book of Genesis
Adam and Eve lived sinless in innocence in paradise
a snake raised its serpent head whispered whispered

lies lies lies Adam Eve listened ate lies innocent died;
sin evil spread has since spread a plague across all lands

injustice and cruelty are universal
found in all countries all religions
endemic in all societies cultures;
