Exoneration of Eve

EXONERATION OF EVE



St. Augustine and Hypolytus resisted temptation too much;

Saints sometimes appear better than we are but I do not

Fault myself for admiring the roundness of women.



It is not the man’s fault when he meets his anima, it is no

Different than Narcissus falling in love with his reflection;

Circles must be squared and angles must be made round.



It’s not that women entice men into the garden of lovers

For Hera will not allow Aristotle to come too near knowing,

He being lofty is afraid of the magnificence of ruin.



Sally Henning allowed Thomas Jefferson to touch her;

And it is in the touch of love the levels the playing field;

However different we appear, we are from the same source.



The liger is the offspring of a lion and a tiger, both are cats.

In my youth I accepted a Nubian lover with the same alacrity;

I am grateful for feminine pulchritude and fault them not.



Let us get over Eve tempting Adam; if there is a mea culpa,

Let us blame the androgynous Elohim, they created us.

If Zorba the Greek was ecstatic, why can we be ecstatic.
