Here is a little poem I wrote. Not the best poet in the world but I enjoy myself.

They ask
“where are the flaming swords of Eden?”
I don’t believe I have seen them either
I have seen the wars and the violence
the debt and debauchery
all under the name of joy
the pain of loss
the craving for love
the miscommunicating lovers
I see the death
and the hate
Come to think of it…
I can see the swords just fine.
