Another Eden If

So much alike are
a snake and a worm
and apples oh so shiny

That only after the biting into
learn the garden's gone

Unremember That

Tell me things I won't mind forgetting
Amy Hempel - "Reasons to Live"

Though nowadays it might be wise
to treat all news as lies
obits and dead babies still seep through

And that thing you said about my perfect friend
that modified the modifier and the teller too
please tell me
that weren't true lest I lose not one friend but two
