I love this poem too much, I'm putting it here

Lilith makes me wonder

What if Adam just plain lied
     And  Eve
        with apple juice
           Running down her chin

Just     let    it    slide

Is the whole story  a hoax

A different mother
                    than Mary
                        No father
                           Son
                             Holy Ghost

Was Lilith really all that bad

She  just wanted to be free

The desert is hard on Mustangs
                                          And her man was not handy

Was Mary really a virgin

did Joseph just herd the sheep

Did Mary feel passion
         desire
            her body eternally saved
                  from damnation fire

As God swept her off her feet

the writers got it  wrong

fumbling the interception

Immaculate deception

going to burn in hell
             because  I  swear
                                dance
                           love the universe as a she
not  believing
        I  grow  from a rib seedling
                    half as good as he

dammed

I have loved the boys

And maybe one girl

Will  the devil make me an appetizer
            at his red
                  red
                     feast
OR

Will I be spat back
          for being only mediocre evil
                    By the carnivorous  beast
If I worked
          and loved
               and tried to do good each day

Is my journey truly paved to hell
               With my heart leading the way

If I gave
and prayed to the sky
          for more mercy in me
                 than pain I received

Would God just roll his eyes

And the devil be relieved

If only I could Rhyme Like That.
