• Lilith

  "Lilith"
  written by Roger Parker

  The sea had rocked me to sleep before you came
  "Return and all shall be right"
  Listening and debating the proposition carefully

   He from soil and I from fire
  From the earth we two, made to lie equal 

  The water has been my warmth
  In these many weeks isolated
  I washed away these sins bequeathed to me
  In the salt that flowed from his tears

   "Leave me be"
  And with that you recoiled to your God

   You think I'm a slut
  The origin of your sin
  But I'm not the origin of your sin
  She comes with the second attempt

   With your absence
  I could not keep their babies alive
  This troubling serpent
  I will survive
  I can survive
