About Adam, Eve, Their Brains, and Their Living Situation

I'm no theologian,
but if God didn't want
Eve and Adam to enjoy
sex, they wouldn't have
been naked adults
placed in a sunny natural
habitat. If God didn't want
them to know things,
their brains wouldn't
have been as powerful
as they were (with the
acknowledged limitations).
They be curious, folks.

Mademoiselle, Where Are Your Clothes?

Mademoiselle, 
Where are your clothes?
Should I remove mine,
Do you suppose?

You do enchant me,
My Mademoiselle.
I am inspired—
Can you tell?

Oh my dear,
Such a surprise.
I came home
And there you stood.

You stared at me
With your brown eyes.
Your nakedness
Looks very good. 

Well, here we stand,
Without a stitch. 
I do believe
We found our niche.

Oh, Mademoiselle,
Please lead the way.
I will of course do
What you say. 

Mademoiselle,
You’re so risque.
I never know
Quite what to say.
