Buried in a cave of an ancient desert…
In a tube made from the leather of a long extinct animal…
Was a scroll written in extinct language…
As the centuries built in numbers…
It lay hidden from the eyes and hearts of man…
Until a child picked up the scroll and began to read outloud…
It seems there was a different verison…
To the story of Adam and Eve…
The version we all know of comes after the first sin…
Eve’s beauty sparked a jealous rage in the clouds of Heaven…
She chose Adam and expulsion to a new planted garden…
Man has endured the unwanted influence…
Of the one we call Satan…
