From lofty heavens
fell The Devil,
as a seed
unto The Earth.

Many moons
dwelled he
in darkness
‘fore his tendrils
could sprout
forth.

Many suns
both rose
and fell
before his
branches
could bear
fruit.

Many fallen ones
his roots absorbed
to nourish coming
of his deepest truth.

His deepest truth,
indeed..
what could it be?
The All of it
is knowledge of
both good
and evil.. written
on the many leaves
that grew upon
The Tree.
