Dangled an apple
Proverbial temptation
Exit Paradise
Since then Man is cursed
Different forms of lure but
the same old story
Bribes, stocks, sex offered
Smack your lips and then decide
Partake in the wrong?

ReplyDeleteoh there is much temptation out there...i think it easy to resign ourselves to a predetermined fate, it makes it easier to make that decision to partake you know...taking any kind of personal responsibility away from us...
