Life is very weird right now.

 You have to be careful who you trust and allow yourself around.

If Adam Picked the Apple, by Danielle Coffyn

 If Adam Picked the Apple

There would be a parade,

a celebration,

a holiday to commemorate

the day he sought enlightenment.

We would not speak of

temptation by the devil, rather,

we would laud Adam’s curiosity,

his desire for adventure

and knowing.

We would feast

on apple-inspired fare:

tortes, chutneys, pancakes, pies.

There would be plays and songs

reenacting his courage.

But it was Eve who grew bored,

weary of her captivity in Eden.

And a woman’s desire

for freedom is rarely a cause

for celebration.

“An atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that deed must be done instead of prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, war eliminated.” ― Madalyn Murray O'Hair

“Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.” ― Margaret Atwood

That is why women always choose the bear.
