.........................The Book Of Lilth, Part 3



Who, then, committed the first sin?
Adam....sloth.
Lilith....pride of independence.
Eve....original sin.

The Sanhedrin....lies of omission.

The Sanhedrin wrote me as a demon,
after running from Adam, my brother.
Does it not take knowledge of demons
to create demons?

Who was the first demon, then?
It could not have been me.
My Father had not cast down
Lucifer, the Light Bringer, yet.

The Sanhedrin wrote me as
a demon sucubus of the night,
tempting men, and seducing them.
All men are seduced in their dreams.

Is this what happened to the Sanhedrin?

They had to put a name with the act.
I, as Lilith, was available.
Not demure Eve, mother of the first
murderer of his brother.

No, not Eve, the subservient one,
the ultimate betrayer of humans....
having been created from my
brother's rib.

What does that say for
the inherent tendencies
of Adam, then?
