The Advocate
The adversary began
As the Devil’s advocate
Tempting and sarcastic
“Come with me and eat”…
…This apple is sweet
Take it and eat it…
It is the food of delight
The bitten apple will
Make you feel right
…Never giving you
A moment of blight…
…The unquenchable thirst
Desire is what it’s called
You see I am sent to give
You an opportunity to know
…What has been denied?
Take it and eat it…
…It is good for you
God will never know
Envy he will show
Eat and look upon
…Heaven and Earth
Bite the apple and…
…Be relieved of this
Garden of no feelings
Give your intellect to me
As I am your advocate
For your nature…
…Take it and eat it and see
“I” the advocate know…
...BETTER…
