You cannot be the Eve in my garden.

I do not desire your peddling of
apples and signifiers
as the darkness is choking out the moon
and this bridge leads only to Cain.

I am dreaming in symbols again,
and the madness of pills
is not honey enough for this desert.

This bread is not enough,
fed by cloven hands,
dust in my parched mouth.

Leave me alone!

Already the pounding of battle drums
fill my dull(ed) spaces
and all I can hear
is the falling name of Adam.

LOL
Yes, I am really a gay man. Ha!
No, actually, haven't seen him in about 2 days. He works 2 jobs almost every day, and I work 2 jobs 6 days a week. I am sick and at work, and had a moment of brief feeling-sorry-for-myself mood (it lasted about 20 mins, then I had a sandwich and felt much better). This week has been so aweful I am surprised tears haven't come. I haven't written a moody, non-romantic piece in a while. Thanks for the fav!

LOL true enough, but then again I have the flu and serious PMS, and food is good for both! In about half an hour I am sending security on a 10-14 run for hot chocolate and sweets - It's a good thing I'm so cute, I don't know what I would do if I were ugly, they all love me to pieces here!

How about:

I do not desire your peddling
apples and signifiers
Of darkness choking the moon
and building bridges to Cain.

Love the concept of this poem.

:D
