| Unoriginal Sin The story of Adam and Eve Cast out from Paradise The true story is of Lilith Demonized by structured religion Woman was not made of man The Spartans believed that women were put on earth by the gods To punish men To complicate men's lives To take men away from the glory of war and bloodshed Their propoganda worked its way into our consciousness Into our perception of women Into our belief that Eve cast Adam out of Paradise Because she was gullible and na�ve Lilith rejected Adam because he wanted to dominate She left "Paradise" of her own free will Free will... something lost upon men Understood by women The scientific mind has proven in our genes Women have a "double-X" chromosome And men are "XY" in make-up Which only reaffirms my belief That man is an imperfect woman There is something missing in men That a woman has Thus Eve was made of Adam's rib And Lilith was his equal In our modern world, I long to be complete and equal Not to be manipulated by myth and perception To understand myself and ease my pain |
