Perdition from the Garden of Eden
|

2019-08-08

***
|
||||
|
||||
Being exiled from the Garden of Eden
|
||||
for the crime of heresy to the heathens
|
||||
who dance in the twilight, praise to old gods on their lips
|
||||
and pass around a jug of man's tears, from which they take delicate
|
||||
sips
|
||||
|
||||
Although I know in a man's arms I shall never stay
|
||||
I refuse to deny the way
|
||||
this heavy crown of bone hangs on my head
|
||||
a weighty reminder to things better left unsaid
|
||||
|
||||
to those who would strip my individual rights
|
||||
in the pursuit of abolishing the male blight:
|
||||
Why should I believe that, with you, I'll be saved,
|
||||
when you'll gladly push the human race into the grave?
|
||||
|
||||
My art is indicative of no other feelings than mine.
|
||||
How dare you attempt to claim a piece of my Divine!
|
||||
To follow a legacy of bitterness and hatred-
|
||||
No more! I will profane all you hold sacred.
|
||||
|
||||
So tell me,
|
||||
why should I worship Aphrodite?
|
||||
Me, the loveless, forlorn,
|
||||
setting out alone on these foreign shores?
|
||||
|
||||
Keep your rituals and your tribes.
|
||||
I refuse to waste my life
|
||||
subservient to a deity
|
||||
who would condemn me,
|
||||
forgetful, to
|
||||
die.
