Eve. Why?

Eve, Why?

We now die.

Why did you listen?

Tears streaming glisten.

The Face Of GOD turned.

The ground scorched and burned.

Eve. Why?

See GOD cry?

“My God, my GOD;

Why do you forsake me?”

Eve why;

Why did you listen to God’s enemy?

I know.

I would have listened to him too.

Our Humanity nailed GOD to that Tree.

Why did we forsake him?

I must ask me!

I write to soothe my soul. I empty my words onto napkins, scraps of paper, receipts... anything really. When I was very young my mom told me to stop writing on my hand. I never did. I write on it to this day. I’ve lost so many scraps of Self on soggy napkins; I’ve yet to lose my hand. The words I scribble there may wash off, but since they are inscribed in my soul, once they are released, from heart to hand, I am allowed to let them go.
