Poem 209








The Truth
Part I - The Birth of Humanity

There are The Ones.
There are The Zeros.
Their synthesis, however,
is The All.
That is The Truth
that the forbidden fruit
revealed to us..
Upon Adam and Eve’s
ascension..
right before The Fall.

Their tasting of the fruit,
by God forbidden..
from tree of knowledge
of both good and evil..
was both a blessing
and a curse
unto ourselves.
It took away
our peace eternal..
But in return
It gave us something
greater still..
the space to hold
our highest form
of wealth.

Our taste of the forbidden
offered us the will
and the capacity
to freely discern.
And by that same capacity
and will, it may be argued..
That humanity
as it is known to us today
was thus originally born.
