'An apple a day, '
The prescription goes,
'Keeps the doctor away.',
And so transfers the evil
To doctors.
Simpleminded,
But it works.
The love from Mother Earth
Manifests in apples.
They cure multitudes of maladies,
Suffuse the flesh
With clarity and strength,
Sharpen the mind
To mow down moments
With precision.
They cured Adam of God.
