Apples Anyone? Poem by Thomas Golding

When mother Eve
Lay with proto man
To beget us all
Did either consider
The consequences
The outrage to all
Of those unhappy theologians
Distracted from
The dance of angels
And the heavenly spheres.
And what of Lilith?
Far safer to regard
The chaste harmony
Of the heavens
And leave her to the Lord.
Yet without Lilith
To encourage Eve
To exercise her choice
In awakening
Lotus eating Adam
For which I thank both.
Theologians would not
Be here striving
To know the all.
