EVE AND THE SERPENT

I am suppressed, oppressed, and chained because I am feared
Mortal man cannot accept his impotence, his weakness
Through my blood and my pain I have borne the fruits of man
My womb has given life even to those unworthy of life
My powers have sent men to the highest of highs and the lowest of lows
I have started wars, and I have ended wars
Heaven and hell live within me.

The wise man believes in and worships my divinity
The fool belittles, abuses, ignores and sacrifices me
Believing he has control over me.
The wise man will be given power
The fool will be made to crawl and given death
I was here in the beginning, I am here now
They will hear, they will hear, in the end
They will see that it is I who have unleashed the Serpent
