Eve and Judas
In the Universe
Our Universe.
Mine.
Everything is connected.
I know I know this.
I own this.
I believe it.
It's my own thought.
My own conviction.
Unknowingly we've heard it
Boringly droned from a classroom podium,
Smelling of formaldehyde.
And from that classless, boring priest,
Smiling formally, hiding behind his podium.
That could convict you.
From a bright green patch
Under big sky
I will tell it again.
And I will ask,
'How were Judas and Eve connected?'
Because they were, you know.
