Genesis

A sanguine 
         fruit of passion
       slipped off 
	  its lofty  perch
Upon my sleeping head
         it fell
            jarring me out
	 of my dream
	          of apes
A plate of heavenly
	 equations
        floated by me
	 with a side of 
	         gravy-laden
	          mashed gasses
Hungry
	I reached out
	   to sup my mid-day's meal
  But this primordial soup 
	      would not be held
		   by my holey spoon
Beget and begat
	I spit and I spat

The aroma
      of spoiled juices
	   rose from that
	half-eaten carcass
                    fallen	
Starving and
	by instinct
	    I ravaged the remainder


Potential sin
	      dripped 
	    from my slackened jaws
			sated
	Toxins seized control
		of my self-will
			          Evil's
		   molecular structure
	     double-helixed
			 my DNA

In Newton's magic
	does Darwin delight
       with Babylonian 
		pleasure

				Beware!

The path to God
	Cannot commence
        In drug-induced visions -   
   		  Amphetamine dreams             
		      refined
     From the sugar-sweet fields
	    of America's
             homegrown Cain
