I don't want......

I don't want to vote.
I don't want an abortion.
I don't want to sleep so late.
I don't want to hear you backstab me.
I don't want to take your abuse.
I don't want the responsibility of this corrupt world.

    And he took her hand.
    Little,
    fitting into his like a puzzle.
    Did love come after Eden?
    And they slept naked,
    bodies dying,
    souls reaching,
    for a state of togetherness,
    knowing that trust
    lays in the heart of the creator.
    Death was theirs,
    life was forsaken,
    and the winds
    blew them into eternity.

    "Did love come after Eden?"

    that is an incredibly interesting question. I've never thought about that.

    I agree. A challenging thought.

    I think this is the best one yet, Ali!!!! Just lovely! I could picture this scene so easily and it was beautiful---I wish I could paint your poem! :)

    that is a question for the ages, I think Ali,

    but I think probably not. When I think about the story of Eden, there are two human beings who were given the free will to choose, I think that's the only requisite for love maybe. of course, one could argue that their options were limited, you know? so how much of a choice did they have? but I think love is not necessarily a matter of choosing the person, but rather choosing the act.

    Lust though, I'm thinking that came when Eden fell.

    Thanks for poesing (and that's almost a pormanteau, but not nearly as good of one as a frumious bandersnatch) such a good one!

    Lust definitly did come when Eden fell....there's so much of it on TV nowadays.....
    It lays for other contoversial issues such as THE RISE AND FALL OF PISS_POT AND TERPISCORE-where the woman actually chose love and the man a kind of drug induced Lust where in fact it became a misunderstanding for both and cost lives.
    I,in esscence,thank goodness at the time,have no one to choose at all,
    which brings a sigh of relief!
    Theres plenty of touchy subjects to write about...don't let the masses fool ya!:)
    Thanks pearlmutt:)
