Genesis 3:16

A worm
Imagery given through words
Undeserved
but nevertheless, its my fare
as a bird
My mother will feed it to me
From her mouth to my mouth
Dependent baby

A curse
Metaphor weaved into hurt
“The serpent beguiled me,”
That’s what she learned
Born to serve
An egg then a bird
Still can’t fly
And the lie
It works in our favor sometimes

Human sacrifice in history

The Metaphor of blood 

The headhunters and gods 

Parched for poison: it’s their cure

The disease: impure, as told by curse 

Desolate of the living water 

Only satisfied by the flow of something worse
