Woman is The Root of All Evil?

(inspired by “Adam & Eve” by Bob Marley)

T’was on hearing the lyric of Adam & Eve
That I contemplated the implication that
Woman is the root of all evil.
It was from woman
That the devil was born
-his wife, a feminine figurine with the incapacity to consider being fruitful

“be fruitful and multiply”

Said the Lord God.
But to multiply in the womb of woman is to multiply in the womb of evil?

What is evil?
The definition: wickedness; a wicked deed; harmful; morally bad

The subjectivity always moulded by man to a uterine lining
Then divided rapidly at a pace that only fresh manipulation can keep up with
Sprung on the world with a new born’s bawl
To intoxicate us, as punishment for our misdemeanour
With forbidden cider fruits.

So if woman were.... a tree
How evil would she be?
