EVE
the gods drank
pinot grigio
or maybe
chardonnay
and lazed
about heaven
and never
cared
what we mortals
did
and that is
the knowledge
forbidden of eve,
what the serpent
whispered
in his ancient tongue --
shake it loose, baby,
ophidian spake --
you wear it well

Dear J,
Great pov! The image of the gods just chillin’ with a bottle or two while laughing at the Adam and Eve sitcom down below…until that fateful bite! What an interesting concept that whole tree of knowledge and why was it Eve took the bate/bite and then the rap?
Hmmmmm, I’ll be cogitating about this for a while. Wonderfully thoughtful write.H🌷

Thank you, Honoria.
Yes -- we're generally not privy to the ways of the gods.
We can only imagine.
