I found the Garden of Eden, my search is over. Just a poem, they call it verse, everybody got a right to figure for themselves. I say we still in the garden, God just made life harden, because of disobedience.


Poem Artwork

The Garden of Eden
for centuries we've been
in it praying a pleading.
Getting tornadoed, hurricaned
dying and bleeding.
Torchered & terrorized
with hair lines receeding,
trying to get our father to
give up what
we've been needing.

I'll beg your pardon,
this whole earth is the garden.
We never were kicked out,
we've just had to
learn our way about.
All the apple trees are
still growing,
the snakes presence
is spiritually glowing.
We've even juiced the apple,
to a sweet drink called snapple.

No need to search,
most of us believe in church,
the devil is still a lurch.
some of us pray,
so the devil won't
completely lead us astray.
Our father which art in heaven,
dice rolled snake eyes,
flipped pass seven.

Help!

the Russian Azzhole is referring to one of my lines in the last part of my poem, it went as such,

no need to search
just get your butt in church

I changed it because it sounded to much like advice, which I don't give. However a lot of my verse sounds like advice. Sobeit, it's part of my style. The Russian can't even spell piece.(pieace)
